It's not just about votes. Modern wars can be endless as we saw in Iraq and Afghanistan. And Russia is not foolish enough to do a full scale invasion. They will just send in proxies. No nation wants to commit resources to such wars.
russia's economy is smaller than Italy's, Russia can't afford
long wars. in 10 years Poland alone would be able to take on Russia.
People never realize how broke Russia really is because Russia plays such a good marketing game.
Some other people also never realise that "broke on paper" means nothing when you are an energy-independent state with arms and a nuclear capacity to protect its territory.
Russia's development and production costs for military hardware is also much smaller than any Western nation's. They get much more for their money in that respect.
