Russia has seen it's economic fortunes turn around with the demand for oil in recent years and the development of their oil fields.
This new found money has empowered Putin to try and resurrect Russia as a world player in military matters. He knows that for Russia to have clout in the world they have to flex military muscle.
That is bad news for the USA and the Russian people who could sure use those resources to improve things domestically.
America desperately needs to rebuild it's military to adequate numbers to handle the new dangers that the world is presenting.
We need enough full time military pesonnel that we are not sending the reserves and National Guard to War Zones for extended periods as we have had to do in Iraq and Afghanistan.
