Statements by
the head of NATO’s international military headquarters,
Lieutenant-General Jan Brooks, about the need to improve the logistics
of the alliance in Europe testify to the intensive preparation of the
North Atlantic bloc for war with Russia - Moscow’s response to these
aggressive plans will be thoughtful and asymmetric, told National defense "Igor Korotchenko.
Earlier,
Brooks, in an interview with Defense News magazine, said that in the
event of a clash with Russia, the European countries - NATO members will
face serious problems related to logistics. The
general noted that it is necessary to increase the capacity of the main
ports, to find highways that can withstand the weight of military
equipment.
"These
statements prove that NATO continues to prepare for war, and at an
accelerating pace. General Brooks's words are a call to remove all
obstacles to create conditions, if such a need arises, to ensure smooth
logistics and unimpeded deployment of Alliance strike forces near the
borders with Russia. Obviously,
these appeals will be implemented in the form of concrete decisions,
and this is extremely dangerous, "Korotchenko noted.
The
expert stressed that the Russian military-political leadership will not
disregard these statements and further practical actions by NATO, while
the response will be asymmetrical and thoughtful, because today Moscow
should not be drawn into a "frontal" arms race, which is what West.
“I
believe that the response of the Russian Federation will be
asymmetrical, but at the same time relatively low-cost - we cannot be
drawn into the arms race, but we cannot leave NATO’s plans without
attention,” said Korotchenko.
The
interlocutor of the agency expressed the opinion that in the current
situation Russia needs to multiply increase the production of Caliber
cruise missiles, which can be placed on different sea carriers. Thus,
the Russian Federation will increase the potential of strategic
non-nuclear deterrence, which will become the guarantor of the country's
security along with the nuclear triad.
