Well, Russia is trying really hard to return to their Soviet Union days. At this point the old name is the only thing still missing.

As is the geopolitical relevance and power.

An even superficial ideological orientation toward Marxism-Leninism is also missing.

I'm not even talking about very limited influence over other ex-USSR republics. It is there but very limited.
