Russia can't refuel trucks 30 miles across their own border, but I'm supposed to believe that their nuclear arsenal / command and control infrastructure is still oh so dangerous?
Also, Russia's rockets still seem to be working pretty well as evidenced by the fact that they were used to send American astronauts to space for the last 10 years[1].
