I remember this super toxic machismo guy on Hell's Kitchen (probably scripted but still) who, upon losing a challenge to a lady, was like "She didn't really win. She only won because I lost."
I understand what he meant, that she didn't do particularly well, he just absolutely failed so she won by default. Which I think describes Russia in the modern world. Not exactly doing well, but constantly increasing its strength because everyone else fails miserably.
