To understand or get close to understand Russian you must read history, have some understanding of social structures and psychology, you can do that by either take classes or use your spare time research in on Internet or use the library.
Like Anna said Russia has never ever been or had democracy, go back say 800 yrs in history of Russia/ Union/ Federation/ Empire and it has always been a Serfdom. There is something called Social heritage and if you don't know what it is basically you can define it as " culturally learned customs, codes, and rules of behavior that are constant across generations ". So Serfdom for those not familiar with it was an institutional system which obliged a peasant to provide forced labor services to his landlord in exchange for being allowed to occupy land. Russia in its different forms have more or less in one shape or form been a Serfdom.
So now take Serfdom and apply it to a Social heritage then add it to at least 800 years, what do you get? Yes, that's Russia of today, tomorrow and hundreds of years to come. Russia is what they've always been and I doubt they will ever learn the meaning of freedom or democracy.
The only way to subdue Russia from continuing what they do and always have done is simply to put them in their place and do it good! It doesn't matter if someone like Navalny comes to power, he is from the same Social heritage, he is a Serf like 95% of Russian society is.
So my remedy for Russia is that there be a new Iron Curtain but this time from everyone outside Russia and close that border to Russia for a couple of hundred years until they've learned how to behave in the society. There is a reason pigs live in a pigsty and not in the farmers living room.

Now let me ask you, where do you get your numbers from.
You're a tool and I bet my left arm that he got more sources then you have and ever will have but let me give you one hint.
In military based on history and experience there is a calculation for casualties, it's rated defending versus attacking, that further breaks down to geography, city, village, forest, fields, sea, air, land, you get the picture.
For example urban areas always have the highest ratio for defending vs attacking, it can go up to as much as 6:1 for the defenders, Ukraine have mainly defended and Russia has mainly been on the attack.
So I suggest that your do some studies on that before even getting into the discussion and yes these calculations are based on experience and history.
