We could have helped Russia after the USSR fell but unfortunately we simply let them slide off a cliff into chaos, death, and poverty. Imagine the power we could have yielded if the IMF neoliberal warmonger globalist fucks hadnt been in power?
The world would have been a better place. China would be a quiet agricultural nation.
We did help Russia, plenty. And the ex-KGB guys and the Russian mafiya took all the help they could grab away from its rightful recipients, and used it to stuff their pockets.
That said, Russia is still better off now than when it was the USSR. Certain individuals may have it worse, but overall it's better. Of course, some of Putin's cronies are working hard to change that....
