It matters if you think the WW I timeline for Russia means the fall of the Soviet Union and the installation of Putin were a Crisis. If Russia is in a second turning, the reaction will be different than if they're in a fourth turning.

Russia and the Mideast, and "WW II timeline" as being the West, even
though some countries don't fall neatly into those categories.
China and Japan are part of the West? They're definitely on the WWII timeline.
