Russia still poses a huge threat to the United States, and its strategic forces have not been used in the conflict in Ukraine and remain fully operational.
This was stated at a Senate hearing by the Director of the Defense Intelligence Agency of the USA Department of Defense Scott Berrier, reports the correspondent of “PolitNavigator”.
According to the American general, Russia will be able to restore the capabilities of ground forces, which are involved in combat operations in Ukraine, very quickly.
With its nuclear capabilities, Russia is still an existential threat. General Cavoli is right that their strategic forces have largely been untested here and they still pose a huge threat.”, Berrier said.
Earlier, the Commander-in-Chief of NATO Allied Forces in Europe, USA General Christopher Kavoli, stated that the degradation of the Russian armed forces has been very grossly misrepresented by the Western media and in fact, most of the Russian military has not been affected by this conflict.
