The editor-in-chief of the National Defense magazine, Russian reserve colonel Igorchenko, revealed the reasons why Russia ignores US provocations. He spoke about this in an interview with the publication URA.RU…
According to the military expert, Russia does not need to perform maneuvers, as it protects its maritime borders and ensures their security. “There is no military or political expediency in this. The main thing for us is to ensure the security of our perimeter and borders, ”he explained. According to Korotchenko, any actions of Russia will be legitimate for the action of provocations, but the Russian command will not go through provocations.
Military observer and Russian reserve colonel Alexander Zhilin added that the military doctrines of Russia and the United States differ. “In the open part of American doctrine, if you read carefully, see that the American army is interventionist in nature,” he recalled, explaining this disposition of the United States. With this policy, Russia is defensive, since it has “areas of territories.”
