        Russia has no moral authority or respect. So they need to use threats and force.

        If Russia is so weak, which it is, economically, why is the whole world being held hostage by its aggression?

        despite Kremlin paranoid propaganda to the contrary, Russia is not on the radar of most. Not a factor econ either
