depends on what you mean by dangerous. The US for one seems like a very dangerous state at the moment with their policies of agressive expansion and democratization by force. I'd like to remind you that back when Gorby agreed to let go of East Germany and Eastern Europe Washington promised him in return that NATO would not expand eastward and that the "freed" eastern european states would remain "neutral". Naturally Gorby was either stupid enough or oiled enough not to ask for this promise to be made out in writing because sure enough NATO has been expanding big time. Today in order to get from Russian to the Kaliningrad region by train we need to have travel passports and get transit visas from Lithuania.
I personally don't particularly like the Kremli gang (cause that's what they are, a bunch of cheap thugs) and there's a host of issues about Russian that I'm not at all fond of, but the west, or let as be more specific the US, seem intent on making the lives of ordinary Russians even more miserable.
