Okay, so there's the Winter War and other battles throughout history where they've won land as a result of an offensive. (see also: Siberia) However, much of Russian land was claimed after winning decisive defensive victories and then going over and saying "We won't kill you if you give us [specific pieces of land]" to which the losing nation's army hands over the land.
