Russia absolutely is an imperialist power.

Russia, if given its druthers, would be imperialist, but since it presently doesn’t, it presently isn’t. Putin tried to join NATO once, to join the imperialist club, but that was rejected, because the US wanted Russia Balkanized & plundered instead. Russia has figured out that presently it’s better off allying with Global South countries than attempting imperialist adventures upon them. And this war has accelerated that allyship.
