The renewal and regeneration of Russia, out of the rubbles of the defunct Soviet Union should be a thing of joy - not a source of global tension. Prosperity in Russia is good for the world. Just like China, Brazil, India and Nigeria. These are powerhouses in their regions!
Russia is a world power. Always been. There were hard times, as with all nations, and things are looking up now....thank goodness So, why should that be a problem for the West or anyone?
If I were Western Leaders, I will creatively engage Moscow and let Russia be.
Yes, there are issues. When won't there be? Pray, raise and resolve them please. Russia is in the G8, the UN Security Council, the International Space Station, in the WTO, in NATO-Russia Council, in the so-called Quartet (Israel/Palestine Issue), the Six-Party Talks (North Korean Nuclear Issue), etc. Many levels and channels!
Let not the US-Russia rivalry be blown beyond proportion, please.
They should set a Bush-Putin Friendship Summit to fix the rattle and puzzle. Fast.
And, hello Europe, please be neutral!
