With the end of the Soviet government, Russia has attempted to improve its economy by making it more of a "market economy," since it was clear the US economy, which was market-based, was far superior.
The first alternative is correct (A).

This was a necessity for that country to develop and regain some power of influence. Russia is a developing economy today, but it is not exactly a democracy or a free economy.
