It's not "Europeanized" and not supposed to be so.

It's uniquely Russian.

How about the following depicted in
https://eng.globalaffairs.ru/articles/the-pendulum-of-history/ ?

"Russia and Europe also have radically different understandings of their identities in Greater Europe.
Russia positions itself as an independent actor in Greater Europe, with identity equal to Europe’s, and
rejects integration into Europe as its vassal. However, Europe does not accept Russia’s equal identity.
The EU and NATO, as organizations with collective identities, regard Russia as a stranger rather than
an equal partner. Russia’s equal status in the EU and NATO in Greater Europe will mean that it will
have veto power over EU and NATO decisions, which is not acceptable to them.. The EU and NATO
also oppose an equal status for the EEU and the CSTO proposed by Russia. In other words, Russia
and Europe disagree over what Greater Europe should be like and what roles they should play in it.
It seems that the Greater Europe plan has intrinsic and insurmountable defects.

Perhaps the idea of Greater Europe is not dead. It may reappear at some point in the future, but it
is dead at least for the time being."
