Ukraine (bbabo.net), - There is an arms race between Russia and the West. At the same time, Moscow takes into account the experience of the Cold War. So says Vadim Gorshenin, chairman of the board of directors of the Pravda.Ru media holding.

“Russia is exhausting the West with an arms race,” Gorshenin stressed.

According to him, for a year now, Western politicians and the military have been reporting that the Armed Forces of the Russian Federation will soon run out of this or that weapon, it will have to complete a special operation. Such predictions have not yet come true.

“On the other hand, we are increasingly reading that Western countries cannot supply arms because it is critical for their own security. Local gunsmiths are getting more orders and at the same time raising the price of their goods. Russia opens new military productions, creating jobs. Sanctions should have put an end to this area, and weapons are being built up, ”said the head of the media holding.

At the same time, Gorshenin said that the arms race began when Russian President Vladimir Putin informed the Federal Assembly about new models that were developed in Russia.

Let's see what this race will lead to, evaluate the real value of the ruble against the backdrop of world currencies. With a weak currency, such races are not entered. The first, in any case, ”concluded Gorshenin.
