That’s just market value and not a form of support.
Why would the EU be sending 150 billion as a form of support, why do you feel entitled to free money? Russia was selling the EU resources and became rich enough over the last decade to start a war with Ukraine and have enough money in the bank to ride out the first 4 years of sanctions.
One is the overall strategy and the other is the last option. Without the Western threat there would be no need for nukes. It all starts with US resource wars. The rest is consequences.
No it is not the overall strategy, just the opinion of one dude who served in government 50 years ago. Medvedev is a current member of Russia’s ruling party. The fact that Russia has nukes means they have no reason to fear invasion because of mutually assured destruction. No one is planning on invading Russia. Russia is the one currently waging a resource war against Ukraine as well as stealing gold and diamonds while providing protection to African warlords. Russia is currently doing what you claim the west is planning on doing to Russia.
Which would put Russia at the receiving end of a hybrid war until it is dissolved.
The only ones coveting a piece of Russia are the 100 million Chinese on the border of Russian Manchuria. The Chinese leadership does not forget the last of the unequal treaties. This will be Chinese land again soon.

The west has been cooperating with Putin since he first got into power 25 years ago and was sending over 150 billion dollars a year Russia’s way
That sounded like they were supporting Russia, not just doing business.
Russia was selling the EU resources and became rich enough
As did Germany and the EU from using the gas which allows them to finance the war for Ukraine. Usually the processing companies make the bigger profits.
just the opinion of one dude
Who is highly decorated. There are the notes from chancellor Kohl that at least Germany had no intention of including Russia despite telling Russia something else. If the West wouldn’t think like that dude we would have behaved differently.

For the most part Russia works for the elected governments, unlike the West. In which country are they stealing?

We are starting to continue where the disarmament interrupted the arms race.
Neither will they forget the opium wars and the eight nation alliance. https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Eight-Nation_Alliance
As long as the US is not willing to let China become the hegemon once they have the better technology, Russia and China will be best friends.
If you look at how poor and sick people live in the US, isn’t becoming part of the US empire the bigger threat?
