Inequality and power imbalances are not great in any kind of relationship. Same goes for international relationships.
Shit, the reason we didn't end up in global thermonuclear war is because the USSR and USA were roughly equal in their ability to render sterile large parts of the world. MAD was the ultimate equality in the darkest Strangelovian way.
Look at how Russia has acted since it stopped being a superpower. It's far more unpredictable, but at a regional level not global. They can't really do global anymore.

Pretending there is a general rules that applies equally to all roles of "relationship" is naive, an idealistic oversimplification of international politics. > Look at how Russia has acted since it stopped being a superpower. so let's give them more nukes and money to calm them down? or alternatively, don't let any new Russias emerge.
