I believe the Russians are still suffering from the diminishing "greatness" of the empire called Soviet Union. The originally vast union has had taken pieces out of it; counties like Ukraine, Usbekistan, Turkmenistan or giant Kasachstan. And now, after having the west take great influence on the recent elections in Ukraine, the baltic states joining the EU, the seperatist war in Chechnya, another former part of the once proud soviet union is supposedly being "lost" to the west.
