DISINFO: Only Russia’s anti-missile weapons can stop NATO from further replicating aggressive operations
SUMMARY
Thousands of long-range cruise missiles accumulated by NATO countries have nothing to do with defence and security. These strike systems were originally designed for aggression. Previously, NATO missiles “managed crises” and “sowed democracy” in Iraq, Yugoslavia, Libya and Syria.
Nowadays only Russia’s powerful anti-missile weapons stop NATO from further replicating aggressive military operations on the territories of the independent states of Eurasia that are arbitrarily assigned as “rogue states” by Washington and Brussels.
Russia remains a leader in the development and production of high-tech weapons systems and thereby strengthens world peace.
RESPONSE
Recurring pro-Kremlin disinformation narrative, portraying NATO as an aggressor, and Russia as a guarantor of peace in the world.
NATO is a defensive alliance, whose purpose is to protect its member states. During the Warsaw summit in July 2016, NATO has made it clear that:
"The Alliance does not seek confrontation and poses no threat to Russia".
NATO's exercises and military deployments are not directed against Russia – or any other country. Exercises are designed to ensure that NATO forces are trained, able to operate together and ready to respond to any threat from any direction.
