The best way to change Russia is to defeat them in Ukraine and break their military power and economy. A liberated Ukraine and Belarus will do the job for us and is why Vlad needed to start the war to begin with, they could not tolerate a Russian speaking liberal democracy (s) on their doorstep. Make no mistake there is a Ukrainian language, closely related to Russian, but everybody in Ukraine speaks Russian and in Belarus they do it with an accent and more western influence.
Post war Ukraine will prosper and they will live like shit in Russia, many young talented Russians will end up in Ukraine, politics and attitude will determine things, not so much language or ethnicity. They will be broadcasting the good life into Russia as the older generation dies off. They share a Slavic culture and language and there will be many Russian broadcasters working out of Ukraine and perhaps Belarus.
How do you train a wild elephant? By tying it to a tame one. Ukraine will have the money and cultural freedom to lead the Slavic world and change Russia. In 5 years time they will have the military might to keep Russia in check on their own. Ukraine will become a magnet for any young Russian with brains, talent and the right attitude, that is where the money will be and where Russian is spoken, there will be no future in Russia for a long time.. Vlad can't put an iron curtain across the middle of the Slavic world, not in this day and age. Technology changes societies and it will help to do the same for Russia, but they might have trouble getting much of it or be able to afford it.
