This article is areally a bunch of alarmist crud.

The Russian will continue to voice concerns they have, but there will be no new cold war. Sorry.
"Don't be sore winners." (a line from the movie Cnadain Bacon with John Candy)

Russia is enjoying a building boom and an economy (in Moscow at least) that is moving forward at good speed. No one wants to go back to the cold war days. Proof? The goverment officals, including Putin, do nto drive around in Zils any more. The car of choice? Armored BMW and Mercedes. Almost exclusivly. Few poor Russian buy Ladas or Volgas any more. Kia and Hyundai and Skoda are the big sellers here now.

The Cold War was about more than economic policies.
