Vladimir Putin shocks with a radical decision that he announces at the moment in the midst of Russia's war with Ukraine, and this is because the Kremlin leader says that his country will consider changing the military doctrine to include the concept of a strike preventive, as the USA does.
Vladimir Putin says that looking at the way the US acts to ensure its security, Russia could decide to launch attacks against some countries to prevent possible attacks against it, but of course he is talking here about smaller non-NATO countries , which could not fight back hard in case of attack.
"Russia is considering the 'pre-emptive strike concept.' Russian dictator Vladimir Putin said on December 9 that the country may adopt what he refers to as a US policy of using pre-emptive military strikes in its military doctrine, the Associated Press reports.
We're just thinking about it. They have not been shy about talking openly about it in recent years," Putin said during a news conference in Kyrgyzstan.
"Talking about a disarmament attack, maybe it's worth thinking about adopting the ideas developed by our US counterparts, their ideas to ensure their security," Putin added.
