  • Sorry but having nuclear weapons and ‘other technology’ doesn’t make a nation a super power. Outside of the cyber and disinformation realm they can barely exert influence outside of their own borders. You could even make the argument that they don’t even have complete control within their own borders as they have been unable to prevent attacks from occurring internally within their controlled territory.

    A super power has complete sovereignty over their territories and global influence across multiple domains of which very very few countries could be considered to have that. Russia can barely project their power against what should have been a much weaker adversary. Also before you spout off some nonsense about the US/NATO arming Ukraine and unfairly tipping the scales… If Russia were a true superpower they would not only have the military ability to project their power but they could also use their soft power in building a coalition of nations to accomplish their goals. They have failed to do either at this point.
