Tittle of an Article: Out to do business, or out for a scrap?
Article summary: Under Vladimir Putin, Russia is once again flexing muscles and scoring diplomatic points?-but it is not always clear what purpose this serves
What does "out for a scrap" mean in this context?
Does it mean "for a fight"?
pretty much, yes. "prepared for a fight" or "ready to fight".
