National security means securing THIS nation, not others.
The Soviet Union (together with the Warsaw Pact) was, for many decades (during the so-called "Cold War") the greatest threat to America's national security.
Russia is now a shadow of its former self - yet still poses a threat to world peace and to the U.S.
I whole-heartedly support the continued degradation and destruction of Russia's armed forces.
Don't you?
