I think you underestimate Russia and the danger that the Putin regime poses. Of course it is nowhere never the Cold War Soviet threat, but that does not mean it does not exist. Putin, Xi, and the Iranian leadership are allies.

The actual policy announced by the Prime Minister noted challenges from all three, but sensibly stated that security in the Euro Atlantic theatre was the priority and the prerequisite for a more Global role.
