Russia's great strength is also a big weakness. It's size gives population, and resources, but also makes it very hard to defend.

True, but given how timid NATO has been about attacking Russia so far, I doubt they'd have to defend their own territory much.

Nukes.... It's a big deterrent... they're such a big deal that either every country should have them. Or no country should be allowed to have them... Everyone should be timid about attacking anyone that has nukes
