MOSCOW, April 3. /TASS/. Aggressive developments around Russia make it necessary for Moscow to use the armed forces in a preventive manner, Russian Presidential Spokesman Dmitry Peskov told media on Monday, while commenting on the adoption of the updated Foreign Policy Concept.
"Many countries, in the first place, the countries of the collective West, have widely resorted to the preventive use of their armed forces," Peskov stated. "The current developments, aggressive developments around us just make it necessary to reserve such a right as well."
He stressed that "the concept itself has been updated in the light of the new realities."
On Friday, Russian President Vladimir Putin approved an updated and revised concept of the country's foreign policy. The concept states that Russia can use its armed forces for self-defense or for preventing attack against itself or its allies.
Ukraine is simply not big enough and does not have sufficient weaponry to attack Russia. ==
But STILL it is a threat on a Russia doorstep. I ask you consider similar threat on US doorstep and what will US do?
These nations have a tremendous incentive to destroy the US economy. And they have the means.
They will form an alliance.
They have their own demographic problems. China in ten years is going to be a bad place to be. They have an aging and sick population supported by millions of middle aged men who will never have families.
Have you seen images of kids in China? If you think American kids are obese, take a look at China. The kids there are so special now they are being spoiled like no other generation of Chinese babies.
There is a lot of saber-rattling about Taiwan. In not so many years, China wouldn’t be able to walk up the steps of the Great Wall, let alone pull off an amphibious invasion of a western supported island a hundred miles away.
1938...
Reminds me of Poland attacking Germany before WW II. Ukraine launches attack on Poland to start WW III. Its a trail balloon for the Needed “Tolkin Gulf” moment to get US support for the war. Europeans will not be fooled.
I'm not worried at all. First off, this is far less threatening than the Berlin Crisis or the Cuban Missile Crisis which I already survived. Second, I'm so close to a probable ground zero I'll be blasted into a plasma before I can even feel anything.
This war is simply about Russia trying to annex Ukraine, that's all. All the claims of "provocation" and the like are simply bull.
Huh?
Berlin Crisis or the Cuban Missile Crisis which I already survived. ==
SO you are very old. Then indeed you have nothing to worry because you already lived out your life and anyways soon will be your turn off. BUT what about your children and grandchildren will they be same ok with it?
If it does not have the means to attack Russia, how can it be a threat?==
As a part of NATO they will have means. SO this war is just preemptive to eliminate a threat which West created.
Before WW 2 Started Germany sent commandos dressed as Polish soldiers to attack a German radio station and that is why Hitler declared war on Poland. A good ole false flag operation.
Even NATO itself isn’t a threat Russia. As I said, it’s all simply an excuse for Russian aggression.
Even NATO itself isn’t a threat Russia. ==
Hitler told same thing before 1941. And Japan too. But those who believed them proved fools.
If you have means to harm me then you are a threat to me. And if I’m not a fool I will do a precautions. And more you talk about you not a threat having such means then more suspicious I become if I simply don’t trust you. That is simple.
The diplomacy is a way of lies.
The war will be won not in Ukraine but on the streets of Berlin, Paris and Rome. If German Gov. Falls and orders the US Army and Nukes out—or signs a peace treaty with Putin—we are done. This can get really bad really fast.
It's always the same story with Russia, it attacks its neighbors and then complains its new borders are threatened.
How does that enrich the Western military-industrial complex? 
NATO has neither the means nor the intent to invade Russia.==
Funny))). DO I have to take your word on this?
If it had wanted to, it could have attacked in the 90s when Russia was even weaker than now==
NATO couldn’t do it then because in 1990th Russia had a whole nuclear potential of SU and it was even bigger than today’s.
If NATO was wanting to invade Russia they would have done it when NATO was at its most powerful with all of the forces in place at the front, when the Russian empire collapsed and all their slave nations were screaming for NATO to help them.
NATO had no interest in taking Russia or they would have.
Russia on the other hand would have taken Europe if that situation of 1991 had been reversed.
So when taking Russia would have been easy NATO didn’t do it because of nuclear weapons, but suddenly now, those same Europeans with their reduced militaries and continued disinterest in taking Russia, are suddenly eager to attack Russia and start a nuclear war for no known reason.
Nobody in the West wants Russia.
NATO had no interest in taking Russia or they would have.==
Yeah and I must trust your word on it? Hence at same time you must trust my word that Russian nuclear missiles do not threaten NATO countries. Russia doesn’t have an interest to take them. Agreed?
