Russia is a mafia that owns a gas station, not a global power. They’d be irrelevant without nuclear weapons. Their economy is roughly the same size as the state of Texas.

Just because they have nuclear weapons doesn’t make them a reliable partner in global geopolitics. Trusting Russia in any sort of alliance is a foolish move if you’re familiar with history.
