Texas has the same GDP as all of Russia. Both New York and California are considerably larger than all of Russia. There is no scalable parity here. China is more serious, but Russia is nothing more than a sadistic nuisance. Moving away from fossil fuels in the next few decades will make Russia into a backwater wilderness even more than it already is. The current war's workforce generation gap is their death knell.

It would not surprise me one bit if Putin's rhetoric is done in collusion with the US military industrial complex behind the scenes. He's already funding the Republican party. It would only make sense that he is also working closely with the real powers.
