Lets look at some recent events:
Russian ships deploy oceanic probe at North Pole, claiming Artic Circle as Russian.
Continual Tu-87(?) flights along US North Alaskan airspace....
Increases production of oil and natural gas to Europe..(increasing European dependance upon Russian oil)
Georgia opens competitive oil pipeline to capitalize on European opportunity.
Russian thumps Georgian territory...targets pipeline and infrastructure.
This is a "new" Russia, with "old" world conquest goals.
