Oh, give me a break! Russia was about to fall from its own weight anyway. It
was so over-extended, from not only its own empirical notions, but from a
cold war waged by a long succession of US presidents before RR. It merely
came on his watch.

And even then, some pretty high-placed and rather conservative military
strategists warned that world might not necessarily be any safer with Russia
out of the picture, and global events since that collapse sort of tend to
bear out the truth of their predictions.
