Russia? Economically and culturally dominant? Over Ukraine and Poland? I don't think so.
[Russia won’t have as far a reach as they had doing the cold war. Their influence is sure to reach the Baltics.]
Besides outright occupation, I don't see how Russia could get any additional influence over the Baltics.
Russia already has influence over the Baltics, it won't be allowed to have more.
