Well, it always works in both directions, doesn't it? Europe is just as unprotected from Russia as Russia is from Europe. And one could snatch Russia's Far East region and Eastern part of Siberia, while Russia would be absolutely unable to take it back, as Siberia is just as great obstacle for their own forces as for invading ones.
P.S. Wouldn't make sense to move the capital if Russia over the Url mountains to Asian portion of the country? I mean, from defence point of view; from economic positions, of course, it would make no sense to move industry because of lack of waterways and roads.
And as for NATO's collective defence - don't attack NATO then, easy! In early 2000s Russian politicians mentioned, that inability to invade Baltic states (for "peace keeping" purposes, of course), would be a threat to Russia's national security, thus NATO=threat. Sure Baltics them proceeded to join NATO with even greater effort. Some people just don't know when to shut up. :-D
