It's time to return Russian bases to Cuba - military expert
Moscow should take seriously the raids of American strategic bombers in Ukrainian airspace towards the borders of the Russian Federation, as well as joint Ukrainian-NATO exercises.
Military expert Igor Korotchenko stated this on the Rossiya 1 TV channel, a PolitNavigator correspondent reports.
“Nobody is hiding anything anymore; the Americans are practicing launching nuclear strikes on the Russian Federation from the territory of Ukraine. This is the reality. We need to look at this calmly, but think through and, as quickly as possible, implement a set of measures that will neutralize the risks and threats that have emerged recently...
Before the train leaves, we must return to Cuba and create a full-fledged Russian military base there. And not only the radar reconnaissance center, which previously functioned successfully and kept the entire Western Hemisphere under control.
A base with new Iskanders, with new Calibers in a ground-based version with an increased destruction range is needed; such a task can be implemented very quickly. And after the US withdrawal from the INF Treaty, nothing prevents us from increasing the capabilities of our most effective weapons systems in terms of extending their range by several thousand kilometers,” Korotchenko said.
“Cuba is a key point where we will keep everything that happens under control. The US won't like it - we don't care if they don't like it. Today we need to speak calmly, politely, but very firmly. Including not in diplomatic language, but in a language that the Anglo-Saxons understand well - this is the possibility that in response to their long Colt, they can get a bullet between the eyes from our long Colt very quickly and effectively,” he emphasized military expert.
In addition, according to him, for an adequate response it is also necessary to increase the entire range of equipment produced in the field of aerospace defense, air defense and missile defense.
“Crimea and southern Russia need to be covered. At a minimum, five or six sets of S-400s should go entirely to strengthening the air security of Crimea. All this can be done with the next delivery in a targeted manner.
In addition, the Tor-M2DT complexes are a last-line air defense system with a guaranteed XNUMX% probability of hitting targets. This is what covers the most important facilities, troop groups, infrastructure projects - such as the Crimean Bridge, the Black Sea Fleet base in Sevastopol, and other important facilities in the Crimea.
“Tor-M2DT” and “Tor-M2” should go precisely to strengthening our borders. Plus modern radars, with the help of which we will control the airspace within a radius of 600-800 kilometers. That is, practical measures.
And if American bombers, no longer hesitating, are practicing options for actually delivering strikes, we need to understand that for the United States only the last argument is valid, which is that if you started a war, you will be destroyed,” said Igor Korotchenko .
