Almost continuously, from the Bolsheviks to Putin, Russia has been aggressively expansionist and hostile to the United States and other Western nations. The brutal and destructive criminality of Putin and his circle are what puts Russia at odds with the EU and the US, not wokeness.

As for the BRICs currency scheme, it suffers from the problem that the primary members cannot and do not trust each other. Even now, for example, Russia has a large balance in rupees on deposit in India but no practical way to spend it or convert it efficiently into a transactional currency like the dollar.

Russia is a gulag nation. From the Tsars to the Bolsheviks.

A brief break from their brutality with Gorbachev and Yeltsin.

The Russians are used to being enslaved. If Putin goes, there's a good chance he'll be replaced by another strongman.

NATO caused this situation and 100 percent responsible. Your one-sided view of history sounds exactly like the Biden Admin MSM talking heads who stole an election and have spied on all Americans so that they can keep control of the country. The reasons you present might have passed the truth test before 1991. Since then those hostile roles have reversed and it is the West who is hostile to the East. Even a horse isn’t as blinded as you DNC trolls.
