Not 100% sure but I'll take a guess, Peter the Great.
Yes. Catherine the Great ruled Russia as czarista from 1762-1796, during which she played a large role in the partitioning of Poland, the Europeanization of Russia, and the western "Greek Project."
The Soviet Union's relations with Western Europe following World War II were colored heavily by Soviet relations with Eastern Europe and by the Warsaw Pact forces arrayed in Europe against NATO forces.The Soviet Union's policy toward Western Europe had five basic goals: preventing rearmament and nuclearization of the Federal Republic of Germany (West Germany).
the newly established Bolshevik government gave up extensive territories in Russia's western borderlands in return for peace with Germany in the Treaty of Brest-Litovsk.
Russia was impacted more dramatically by World War I than Western European countries due to its less developed economic and political structures, leading to severe social unrest. The war exacerbated existing issues, such as food shortages and military failures, culminating in widespread discontent that fueled the Russian Revolution of 1917. Unlike Western Europe, which experienced significant industrial capacity and political stability, Russia's turmoil resulted in the collapse of the Tsarist regime and the rise of the Bolsheviks, fundamentally altering its political landscape. This upheaval had profound consequences not only for Russia but also for the global balance of power in the years that followed.

Peter the Great had travelled European capitals and realized that Russia needed to have a water route to the ocean so he created Russia's first Navy. He built St. Petersburg for the navy home base and school. By doing this he opened Russia to shipping and new ideas.
