No, Russia is a Regional Great Power but lacks the ability to project power and infuence anywhere in the world.  Only the US is a true Super Power in the modern world. 

I would say that any of the countries in UN's security council are super powers since they can basically end any voting in UN only with its vote.

Not really. The UNA is just a pawn of the US in most cases. They don't really have much power. The USA is the only country that's considered a super power by most scholars. Most believe that China, India, EU, and Russia may become super powers in the 21st century.
