I would say yes at this point in time due to their escalation of actions in Ukraine.

To truely be a rogue nation, you have to be a naughty nation who is small enough to isolate. Russia is far too big to isolate, so, despite their crimes, they are not a rogue nation simply because they are too big and people don't want to isolate them. About the only time Russia was a rogue nation would have been in the early Soviet Union, and even then Germany was willing to deal with them.

I'm sure the denizens of Baghdad, Belgrade, and Balboa would disagree with the notion that Russia is the most aggressive and violent of the great powers.

They are acting like it, but we shouldn't give Russia up as a lost cause.

Time for NATO to put Putin out to pasture. He's outlived his usefulness, and his bungled KGB-style backchanneling is no longer amusing. Sanctions.

Remember how the collapse of the Soviet Union created an epoch of peace, love and understanding under the hegemony of Capital?

No, Russia is too interconnected with the rest of the world to be considered truly rogue.
