海外网10月19日电 近日,俄罗斯总统普京再次放出狠话,称如果俄罗斯遭到导弹袭击,将会使用核武器来来进行报复。
据英国天空新闻网报道,俄罗斯总统普京18日在索契参加瓦尔代国际辩论俱乐部年会时表示,“如果俄罗斯遭到导弹袭击,将会使用核武器来进行应对”。

普京说,俄罗斯只有在预警系统发现导弹向俄领土飞去的情况下,才会发动核打击。他说:“侵略者应明白,报复是不可避免的”,“当我们发现俄罗斯领土即将遭到袭击时,我们将进行报复”。
普京坦言,这将意味着一场全球性的灾难,但他强调,俄罗斯“不可能是发动这场灾难的人”。他还说,俄罗斯人只会是被侵略的受害者,但他们会用生命进行反抗。他还补充说,那些发动袭击的人“只有死路一条,甚至没有反悔的时间”。
这不是普京第一次就俄罗斯国家安全问题“放狠话”。今年3月,普京就曾表示,俄罗斯如果遭受打击,面临被消灭时,俄罗斯在反击时才会做出使用核武器的决定。普京还反问,“如果俄罗斯都不存在了,我们为什么还需要这个世界?”
普京表示,“使用核武器的决定只可能在以下情况做出,如果我们的导弹预警系统不仅记录到导弹发射,而且准确预报了弹头的飞行轨迹和坠入俄联邦领土的时间,这称作报复性反击,这时我们拥有反击的合法权利”。(海外网 张敏)

Putin: If Russia is attacked by missiles, it will use nuclear weapons to retaliate.

Overseas network October 19th Recently, Russian President Vladimir Putin once again released a rumor that if Russia was attacked by missiles, it would use nuclear weapons to retaliate.

According to the British Sky News Network, Russian President Vladimir Putin said at the annual meeting of the Valde International Debate Club in Sochi on the 18th that "if Russia is attacked by missiles, it will use nuclear weapons to deal with it."

Putin said that Russia will only launch a nuclear strike if the early warning system finds that the missile has flown to Russian territory. He said: "The aggressor should understand that revenge is inevitable." "When we discover that Russian territory is about to be attacked, we will retaliate."

Putin admits that this will mean a global disaster, but he stressed that Russia "cannot be the one to launch this disaster." He also said that Russians will only be victims of aggression, but they will use their lives to resist. He added that those who launched the attack "have only one dead end, and there is no time for remorse."

This is not the first time Putin has "professed words" on Russia's national security issues. In March of this year, Putin once said that if Russia is hit and faced with being wiped out, Russia will make a decision to use nuclear weapons when it fights back. Putin also asked, "If Russia does not exist, why do we still need this world?"

Putin said that "the decision to use nuclear weapons can only be made in the following cases. If our missile early warning system not only records the missile launch, but also accurately predicts the flight path of the warhead and the time of falling into the territory of the Russian Federation, this is called retaliatory. Counterattack, then we have the legal right to fight back." (Overseas Network Zhang Min)

Nearly half of US military troops believe America will be drawn into a major war next year and see Moscow and Beijing as main threats, according to a recent poll. But is there any basis for this anxiety among soldiers?
Almost a half of soldiers and commanders in the US Armed Forces (46%) believe that their country will be drawn into a large-scale armed conflict in 2019, reveals a new Military Times' poll of active-duty troops. They didn't clarify though what kind of war with Russia they expect. Neither have they presented any analysis of a potential strategic armed conflict between Moscow and Washington. US servicemen didn't consider the latest trends and changes in the way our countries will do combat in the near future. They have briefly mentioned cyberattacks, but only the ones that took place this year.

China on notice as America’s next big enemy, right after Russia
The US military didn't mention the three most important things that play a major part in any war: goals, methods/ways of achieving those goals, and means. Basically, they think that the war is imminent, but they don't know what kind of war it will be.
Even though tensions in the Russia-US relations have significantly heightened, neither Washington nor Moscow has ever said anything about being ready to use armed forces in order to achieve military and political goals. Seems like the bilateral relations are at their worst today, but there are no ideological, economic, or territorial disputes that could provoke a large-scale war within a year.
The existing and potential local armed conflicts, which political analysts enjoy listing (making sure they cover everything – from the Far East and all the way to the Western Hemisphere), will not cause a major war between Russia and the US either.
The current situation in Syria proves that point because we see how Moscow and Washington do everything they can to avoid stepping on each other's toes in that region. Besides, and this is true for both countries, neither Russian nor US experts are able to outline concrete military and political goals, which such a conflict would pursue, in a few brief statements.

No one can point out specific economic and sociopolitical factors and reasons that could trigger a military conflict between the US and Russia.
It must also be said that a war can't be spontaneous and preparation for warfare takes time. Even if the two countries gear up for a large-scale war as fast as they can, it would take at least six months to get everything ready. And, given the high level of modern intelligence systems, it would be impossible to keep the potential adversary unaware of the preparation process under way.
Apart from all that, armed confrontation between Moscow and Washington cannot start with only peacetime combat-ready units going into battle. It would be an outrageously reckless venture for both sides.
Meanwhile, there is no intelligence data indicating that strategic deployment of troops has started in either of the two countries, which means that no one in Russia or the US is currently busy bringing the armed forces to combat readiness, or operatively deploying troops to theatres of war and in strategic space zones, strategically moving troops from inland areas towards the theatres of military operations, or deploying priority strategic reserve forces. It means that neither side is preparing for a large-scale military conflict.

It'd be more serious than just a shootout
However, if we do try to classify a hypothetical war between the US and Russia, it would most probably be a protracted nuclear world war. From the very beginning, this warfare would be characterized by a mutual unlimited use of all available mass destruction weapons, primarily strategic nuclear arsenals, which would entail a catastrophic aftermath not only for the two belligerent nations, but also for all the other countries of the world.
Both the West and the East know this perfectly well. Senior vice president of the Washington-based Center for Strategic and International Studies James Andrew Lewis wrote in September that with the advent of nuclear weapons, major powers have sought to avoid direct military confrontation, and wars between big, heavily-armed states became expensive and risky.
According to Lewis, "the US finds itself now in a world where its soft power is diminished and its hard power less useful." Emerging powers see themselves as challenging the US for economic power, international influence, and regional leadership. Some have moved from challenge to conflict.
In this environment, says Lewis, Washington's opponents will exploit the opportunities created by information technology for damaging the US and advancing their national interests. He calls it a new kind of conflict whose core is information and the cognitive effect it produces.
As for the Military Times poll, we should remember that no such survey among military troops can be conducted without the approval of the top military and government officials. More often than not, the results of surveys like this are known beforehand; in other words, they will be what they are ordered to be.
It seems that in this case the order was to add fuel to the fire, but no more than that. At any rate, it would not be wise to treat the poll results as an indication of what the US administration intends to do with war and peace in the near future.
