Russia has been around for 1200 years and they're still a world power

Depends on what you mean by russia.  The current incarnation is very young and the only thing making it a world power is legacy nukes. They completely unable to replace some of their loses in the Ukraine war. They no longer have the tech to replace some of the soviet equipment.

Their last attempt at an aircraft carrier had to be abandoned, it was so bad there was no fixing it. Some of their newest cruisers were killed by cheap drones.  Their newest tank was so bad they pulled it from the war. What is left of their air force has about aged out with no replacements in the pipeline.
