RUSSIA IS GOING BACK TO ITS MONGOL HORDE ROOTS.
Like when Subatai destroyed Europe with a small expeditionary force.
Yeah it's not surprising because they were kicked out of the organization to begin with.

Russian had married people from the steppe before such as the Cumans, but it was the Mongol invasion that changed Russia's character.
