Unfortunately, you did not include any reference, text, excerpt, or context to help you answer this question.

What is the committee you are referring to? At what time in history? Any reference that can help us?

However, doing some research we can comment on the following.

Probably, you are referring to the Committee in the US Congress that oversaw the foreign relations with Russia.

If that is the case, then we can say that the two potential outcomes did the committee see in Russia's near future was tensions in the relationship due to major differences in the production of weapons and missiles (long-range and short-range), and the intervention of Russia in other countries as was the case of Ukraine or the Russian support of Iran.

Since the times of the Cold War, the Soviet Union and the United States have had severe conflicts and differences that had produced tense moments. They competed in the arms race, the space race, and the spread/containment of Communism.

The Cold War days are long gone, however, even to this day, Russia and the United States are still being the biggest rivals.
