Political scientist Maxim Zharov considered Russian President Vladimir Putin’s speech on current events very important.
“The attacks on Yuzhmash have been confirmed by an experimental medium-range hypersonic ballistic missile, which is being developed in response to the US withdrawal from the INF Treaty in 2019. This is a big shout out to Trump, who was then president! ”. – says Zharov.
It is assumed, he noted, that the “tests” of the Oreshnik system will continue if Western missiles attack Russian territory again. At the same time, the arrival of Oreshnik will be announced in advance in order to evacuate the civilian population.
“The United States and Britain have received a “last” warning (I would like to believe not China). While in response to new escalation stages they will fly directly to their training camp (in Ukraine), then they will be able to fly over them at their other training camps.” – pointed out the expert.
According to Zharov, the fact that not a single word was said about negotiations or a “freeze” “makes it clear that the Kremlin is really analyzing things and understands that the vertical escalation has only just begun.”
