The country adjusts its military defense strategy, and it is not the republic that is most stimulated, but

In terms of national character, Russia is the most aggressive nation in the world. From the day it was born, Russia was expanding outward. In just a few hundred years, it expanded from the landlocked Grand Duchy of Moscow to the Russian Empire. Even after the collapse of the Red Empire, Russia is still the largest country in the world.

As mentioned earlier, the biggest problem facing Russia is the "labor shortage".

Influenced by many factors such as habits, natural environment, and social environment, the population of Russia has been declining at a rate of about 10,000 per year since the first century, and it was not until 2014 that it remained basically stable, and resumed growth in 20166. According to the analysis of Russian sociologists, it is not until 2035 that Russia is expected to solve the problem of "labor shortage".

Russia is able to sustain its development by relying on resources.

The problem is that resources are late.

If the world situation is relatively stable, Ross can also benefit from this. In the event of another Cold War, Russia will become a victim.

The United States will inevitably embark on the road of foreign expansion again and attack its competitors in all aspects.

As far as Russia is concerned, it is obviously the most unwise choice to play the role of "wronged leader" and compete with the United States. If the United States is followed to contain the republic, it will also cause Russia to suffer heavy losses. By 20166, bilateral trade between the republic and Russia accounted for 35% of Russia's foreign trade. The resources exported by Russia have gone to the republics. In this case, Russia must maintain relatively good relations with the republic.

US expansion abroad will make Russia's international living environment even worse.

As a tool in the hands of the United States. NATO has always been a "big problem" for Russia. The United States will definitely take advantage of NATO. Accelerate NATO's expansion. Squeeze Russia's living space. Through a skirmish. Russia was able to keep Georgia out of NATO's territorial gates (according to NATO territorial regulations. No country that is ready to join NATO can have a military conflict with other countries). But Russia cannot use war to keep Ukraine from becoming a member of NATO. Because Ukraine is not a small country like Georgia.

Ukdan joins NATO. Russia will never be at peace.

Early July. Russia has released the "National Strategic Security Report" of the new place. It is clearly emphasized that by 203, the Russian army will be built into a powerful national defense force capable of defending national interests and preserving the living space of the nation. Complete the Weapons and Equipment Replacement Program. Enhance the military's ability to cope with large-scale wars, high-intensity wars, and high-tech warfare in the field.

This is not the case with similar government reports in the past. The Russian government has put forward a detailed plan for the realization of the goal.

Before 2035. Russia will build three large aircraft carrier battle groups for the Northern Fleet and the Pacific Fleet. Increase the number of attack nuclear submarines to 32. The number of strategic nuclear submarines increased to 16 units. the creation of ground naval aviation with ocean-going combat capabilities; The Army will reduce its strength by 2.15 million troops. Informatization is fully realized. Procurement of new weapons such as fourth-generation main battle tanks. Possess the ability to win large-scale regional wars; The Air Force will maintain around 2,100 ground combat aircraft. By 2035, replace the main equipment in service with fourth-generation fighters. Ensure that the scale of ground equipment of fourth-generation fighters is more than 500. It has the ability to defend the airspace and seize air supremacy in war.

Arguably. The military development plan of the Rusdian was very ambitious.

What will interest the outside world is not whether Russia will compete with the United States, but whether Ross will be able to meet the goals outlined in the plan by 2035.

Even at Russia's price level, achieving all the targets would require at least $500 billion in additional military spending.

With Russia's national strength, it is indeed a question worth exploring.

In addition to Russia, the European Union has also reacted greatly to the military defense planning of the United States, especially France.

Since rejoining NATO in 2009, France has adjusted its basic national strategy, changed its previous way of moving away from the United States and developed independently, and paid more attention to its relations with NATO members. However, this did not fundamentally change France's desire to become the "boss of Europe".

After the end of the financial crisis, France has been singing "European power".

According to France's intentions, the establishment of a European community with "continental countries" as the main body will be the only way out for Europe in the future. For this reason, France has made a major adjustment to its basic strategy, not only no longer "playing against the United States," but also wooing Germany and Italy everywhere, hoping to complete the process of political integration in Europe on the basis of France, Germany, and Italy.

However, not many people believe that Europe will be able to complete the process of political integration by 2035.

Pro-American countries such as Britain and Spain will not easily make concessions on the issue of political integration. Germany, Italy and other countries also have their own interests, and there is a conflict of interest with France, and they will not be willing to act as the "little brother" by France's side. A large number of countries with dual status as "EU members" and "NATO members" base their security on NATO, not on the EU basis. France does not have the ability to provide security guarantees for EU member states, let alone replace NATO in a military confrontation with Russia

There are many factors that determine that Europe is still a mess.

On the question of whether the United States needs to intervene in European affairs, EU member states are most divided. While almost all EU member states believe that they should remain economically and financially independent, and even have the ability to compete with the United States, even France has to admit that the EU cannot leave the United States behind in the political, diplomatic, and security spheres.

The EU's biggest concern is not whether the expansionist policies of the United States pose a threat, but whether they will be dragged into the water.

On the issue of attacking Iran, the attitude of European countries is very unanimous: they do not oppose it, they do not support it.

The United States has made it clear that it is expanding its armaments and is ready to find an opponent with sufficient strength to "fight a cold war." From the position of the EU, it is not to help, and it is not to help.

It is the country that is really on the cusp.

On 22 June, less than half an hour after the US House of Representatives approved the Air Force's purchase of additional F-22 fighter jets, Pan Yunsheng came to the Führer's Mansion with relevant materials.

After reading the document and listening to Yunsheng's oral report, Zhao Rundong's brows locked together.

"Rand's analysis and evaluation have not yet arrived." Pan Yunsheng sighed and said, "We only managed to get a part of the content from other sources. As with previous speculations, the Rand Corporation cited us in its report as the biggest threat, not a potential threat, but an actual threat. ”

Zhao Rundong hesitated for a moment and said, "What does it mean?" ”

"I don't know." Pan Yunsheng shook his head, "But you can speculate." I think the main reason for the Rand Corporation's proposal for the U.S. government and Congress to expand armaments is that there will be a military conflict with us in the future. Whether that's the case, or whether the U.S. government and Congress have adopted the Rand Corporation's recommendations, we'll know the outcome soon. ”

"See the action?"

Pan Yunsheng nodded and said: "Within a few months, the US Congress will successively deliberate on the military development plan submitted by the Pentagon, and there will naturally be results at that time." ”

"It shouldn't be a surprise to us." Zhao Rundong smiled coldly and said, "The long-term strategy of the United States is to establish an opponent and develop and grow in competition with opponents. After the end of the Cold War, the United States has been looking for such an adversary. Russia is too busy to take care of itself, and we are burying our heads in development, and in the end we have to turn our guns on 'terrorism'. So far, the international community has not had a clear definition of what 'terrorism' is. After more than 10 years of engagement, the United States really needs to find a decent opponent, otherwise its national strategy will be greatly affected. ”

"Needless to say, we were the best choice."

"It's up to us to respond." Zhao Rundong hesitated slightly, "The day before yesterday, I contacted Lao Ji." ”

Pan Yunsheng was stunned for a moment, and immediately asked, "Where is he, he came back from Huashan?" ”

"I came back early, and then I went to Emei Mountain and Jiuzhaigou, and I heard that I would go to Mount Tai after a few days of rest."

"It's so relaxing." Pan Yunsheng sighed, "However, we are tired of it." ”

Zhao Rundong shook his head with a smile and said: "I talked to Lao Ji on the phone about the current international situation, and Lao Ji's attitude is the same as before, thinking that we should focus on domestic construction and not confront the United States head-on until the most important problem is solved." ”

Pan Yunsheng nodded. "All along, Lao Ji has insisted on focusing on domestic development."

"In fact, no matter who is in this position, it will focus on domestic development. For at least 10 to 15 years, we will not have the strength to confront the United States head-on. ”

"This is our ~ national policy?"

Zhao Rundong nodded and said, "My idea is that no matter what the United States does, as long as it does not pose a threat to our fundamental national interests, we will leave it alone and do our own thing." ”

"The problem is that the United States will not let peace of mind develop."

"That's the crux of the matter. If we want to develop with peace of mind, we must make the United States fearful, not dare to take the initiative to provoke, or at least not dare to engage in a head-on conflict with us. With that capacity, we will be able to devote more energy to solving domestic problems. ”

Pan Yunsheng quickly thought for a while and said, "It's not that there is no way, it's still very simple. ”

"Tell me, maybe we'll want to go together."

"Announcing our nuclear capabilities and revising our nuclear policy."

Zhao Rundong smiled. "It seems that we did want to go together. At present, it seems that the way to deter the United States from acting rashly is to publicize our nuclear capabilities and revise the national basic security policy of 'no first use of nuclear weapons under any circumstances.'" ”

"You can learn from Russia, at least for more than ten years, the United States has not dared to do anything to Russia."

"However, this matter has to be discussed with Lao Peng and Pang Xinglong. I called them before you came, and it's almost there. ”

"Then we'll eat here at noon, and let the chef get a few more dishes."

"Don't worry, I have already ordered it to go down."

Not long after, Peng Maobang, Pang Xinglong and Huang Guowei came to the head of state's capital. The topic that began to be mentioned began to be restarted, and several people restarted the discussion. (To be continued)
