With less than two weeks until elections, Russian Prime Minister and presidential candidate Vladimir Putin pledged to spend 23 trillion rubles ($770 billion) on strengthening the country’s army over the next ten years, which would make it the Kremlin’s biggest military spending spree since the Cold War.
Putin vowed to deliver an "effective and asymmetrical response" to the North Atlantic Treaty Organization’s plan to cast a missile-defense shield over Europe while thoroughly overhauling the army’s ability to confront modern threats.
If approved, the program would tack on more than $120 billion to a $650 billion defense-spending increase pushed through last year, even though a top official warned it may push Russia’s budget past its breaking point.
Putin wrote in an article for the government-owned Rossiiskaya Gazeta newspaper.
"It’s obvious we won’t be able to develop our international position, our economy or democratic institutions if we cannot defend Russia. We must not tempt anyone with our weakness".
Putin’s manifesto is the sixth in a series of pre-election articles published in recent weeks.
In spite of months of large anti-government protests, Putin, who is former KGB is expected to win the presidential elections that are scheduled for March 4 2012
If I wanted to destroy America’s hegemony I’d quickly understand that I’ve have to do it from the inside and not from the outside.
Obama was a member of the New Party (Communist) until it got shut down and they chose their candidates carefully.
Obama has been their most successful to date!
Putin thinks that Obama is a naive idiot.
And don’t forget how much China is expanding it’s navy!
