      I disagree for a few reasons, but I can see where you're coming from.

      A lot of this depends on what happens in the next days/weeks with regard to Iran and their response to the zionist entity. Shoigu showing up in Tehran yesterday is a glaring red warning to the US, just weeks after Putin stated they would start arming Amerikkka's enemies in response to Ukrainian attacks inside Russia.

      Iran's response, and just how much Russia supports it (Shoigu visiting Tehran, multiple IL-76 military cargo planes have been going back and forth between Tehran and Moscow) will be a good indicator of whether they truly intend to split from the west.

      On the one hand, Russian ruling class would gladly be American lapdogs. On the other hand, American conditions for this have been unacceptable for them for a long time already, and USA doesn't seem to care in the slightest about making them more acceptable.
