Odo Puiu info invites you to watch …. Russian Armed Forces in Action ★ Вооруженные силы РФ. Three Scenarios For Russian Military Action. ⛔ THREE SCENARIOS FOR RUSSIAN MILITARY ACTION ✔ Historical analogies for Russian military action…. Many experts tend to look for historical analogies. “History repeats itself,” they say, while seeking out precedents for today’s events in the past. Thus, a number of Western political scientists actively draw parallels between the strengthening of modern Russia and Germany’s development between the two world wars. They view potential Russian moves on the European continent the same way they viewed Germany’s moves in the late 1930s - with a fair amount of trepidation. ✔ Scenario #1: Ukraine blitzkrieg…………. Regardless of Russia’s attempts to resolve the situation in the Donbas and contribute to the implementation of the Minsk Agreements, the EU has still extended economic sanctions against the Kremlin. At the same time, NATO is stepping up its activities near Russia’s borders with the Baltic States, on the Baltic and Black Seas. Two and a half months remain before the parliamentary elections in Russia, and although the popularity of Russian President Vladimir Putin is extremely high, after Crimea's incorporation into Russia, his ratings have fallen slightly. A rapid military operation in Ukraine, which would create a land bridge to Crimea and take the east and south of Ukraine away from the control of Kiev, would certainly contribute to the skyrocketing popularity of Putin. However, such a “small victorious war” is hardly realistic, if one thinks about its economic consequences. Crimea and support for the unrecognized republics of Eastern Ukraine have extremely high costs for the Russian state budget. Joining Southeastern Ukraine to Russia or bringing it under its sphere of influence would require huge financial investments, something that Moscow simply cannot afford. ✔ Scenario #2: New arms race with the West…………… The second scenario aims at the resumption of the Cold War. Russia is not only strengthening its army – it is also actively building military infrastructure on the border with Europe, provoking a response from NATO. With this, the EU countries, primarily in Eastern Europe, will be forced to increase their military expenditures, which, ideally (from a Russian perspective), should lead to socio-economic disruptions, and a certain decline in their economic development and social programs. On the one hand, such a policy has already started working. As a result, Lithuanian President Dalia Grybauskaite recently signed a new law “on the return of compulsory military service” to counter Russia's "threat". This, according to experts, will cost this small Baltic republic 30-35 million euros ($33-39 million) annually. ✔ Scenario #3: Export of security crises abroad…………. Russian intervention in the civil war in Syria in 2015 within just a few months allowed the country's government troops to begin an offensive against the radical Islamists. Indirectly, these Russian actions also contributed to the successful attacks on the positions of the Islamic State of Iraq and the Greater Syria (ISIS) in Iraq, where government forces, with the support of the Western coalition, were able to liberate a number of cities.
