The US government has prepared two in-depth, publicly available
overviews of Russia that include discussions of security related
issues, particularly:  nuclear arms, human rights, small arms trade,
situation in Chechnya, and other areas of concern.

Would links to these documents be an acceptable answer, or are you
looking for something in addition to in-depth background materials?
