This is the first Russia makes public a document in the field of nuclear deterrence.
Follow New Defence Order. Strategy on Google News.
Basically, this document covers strategic planning as well official perspective on the essence of nuclear deterrence. Furthermore, it includes military dangers and threats to be neutralised by nuclear deterrence. And finally, it lays the principles of nuclear deterrence and nuclear use conditions.
Below is the full text of the document:
I. General Provisions
1. These Basic Principles represent a strategic planning document in the area of ensuring defence and reflect the official view on the essence of nuclear deterrence, identify military risks and threats to be neutralized by implementation of nuclear deterrence, the principles of nuclear deterrence, as well as the conditions for the Russian Federation to proceed to the use of nuclear weapons.
2. The guaranteed deterrence of a potential adversary from aggression against the Russian Federation and/or its allies is one of the highest state priorities. Deterrence of aggression is ensured by the entire military strength of the Russian Federation, including its nuclear weapons.
3. The State Policy of the Russian Federation on Nuclear Deterrence (hereinafter – “the State Policy on Nuclear Deterrence”) is a set of political, military, military-technical, diplomatic, economic, information and other measures, coordinated and united by a common design, implemented through reliance on forces and means of nuclear deterrence to prevent aggression against the Russian Federation and/or its allies.
4. State policy on Nuclear Deterrence is defensive by nature, it is aimed at maintaining the nuclear forces potential at the level sufficient for nuclear deterrence, and guarantees protection of national sovereignty and territorial integrity of the State, and deterrence of a potential adversary from aggression against the Russian Federation and/or its allies. In the event of a military conflict, this Policy provides for the prevention of an escalation of military actions and their termination on conditions that are acceptable for the Russian Federation and/or its allies.
5. The Russian Federation considers nuclear weapons exclusively as a means of deterrence, their use being an extreme and compelled measure, and takes all necessary efforts to reduce nuclear threat and prevent aggravation of interstate relations, that could trigger military conflicts, including nuclear ones.
6.

7. The provisions of these Basic Principles are mandatory for implementation by all federal government bodies and other government bodies and organizations that are involved in ensuring nuclear deterrence.
8. These Basic Principles may be further specified depending on the external and internal factors that influence defence implementation.
II. Essence of nuclear deterrence
9. Nuclear deterrence is aimed to provide comprehension by a potential adversary of the inevitability of retaliation in the event of aggression against the Russian Federation and/or its allies.
10. Nuclear deterrence is ensured by the presence in the Armed Forces of the Russian Federation of the combat-ready forces and means that are capable to inflict guaranteed unacceptable damage on a potential adversary through employment of nuclear weapons in any circumstances, as well as by the readiness and resolve of the Russian Federation to use such weapons.
11. Nuclear deterrence is ensured continuously in peacetime, in periods of a direct threat of aggression and also in wartime, up until the actual use of nuclear weapons.
12. The main military risks that might evolve into military threats (threats of aggression) to the Russian Federation due to changes in the military-political and strategic situation, and that are to be neutralized by implementation of nuclear deterrence, are as follows:
a) build-up by a potential adversary of the general purpose forces groupings that possess nuclear weapons delivery means in the territories of the states contiguous with the Russian Federation and its allies, as well as in adjacent waters;
b) deployment by states which consider the Russian Federation as a potential adversary, of missile defence systems and means, medium- and shorter-range cruise and ballistic missiles, non-nuclear high-precision and hypersonic weapons, strike unmanned aerial vehicles, and directed energy weapons;
c) development and deployment of missile defence assets and strike systems in outer space;
d) possession by states of nuclear weapons and (or) other types of weapons of mass destruction that can be used against the Russian Federation and/or its allies, as well as means of delivery of such weapons;
e) uncontrolled proliferation of nuclear weapons, their delivery means, technology and equipment for their manufacture;
f) deployment of nuclear weapons and their delivery means in the territories of non-nuclear weapon states.
13. The Russian Federation implements its nuclear deterrence with regard to individual states and military coalitions (blocs, alliances) that consider the Russian Federation as a potential adversary and that possess nuclear weapons and/or other types of weapons of mass destruction, or significant combat potential of general purpose forces.
14. While implementing nuclear deterrence, the Russian Federation takes into account the deployment by a potential adversary, in the territories of other countries, of offensive weapons (cruise and ballistic missiles, hypersonic aerial vehicles, strike unmanned aerial vehicles), directed energy weapons, missile defence assets, early warning systems, nuclear weapons and/or other weapons of mass destruction that may be used against the Russian Federation and/or its allies.
15. The principles of nuclear deterrence are as follows:
a) compliance with international arms control commitments;
b) continuity of activities ensuring nuclear deterrence;
c) adaptability of nuclear deterrence to military threats;
d) unpredictability for a potential adversary in terms of scale, time and place for possible employment of forces and means of nuclear deterrence;
e) centralization of governmental control over the activities of federal executive bodies and organizations involved in ensuring nuclear deterrence;
f) rationality of structure and composition of nuclear deterrence forces and means and their maintaining at the minimal level sufficient for implementing the tasks assigned;

Scott Ritter says the USA and NATO cannot beat Russia
https://republicbroadcasting.org/new...ary-cant-cash/
What a ridiculous pro Russian echo chamber this is.
Some guy on twitter has information from the polish secret service - yeah right. Scott Ritter who has been wrong so many times (apart from being a convict) is gobbled down as if he was the new messiah. Russia is winning!!!
Its quite amusing to see how easy it is to get caught up in ones bubble of beliefs by simply ignoring all FACTS that point in a different direction.
maybe I can update you on some of those.
The US conglomerate of services (cia, nsa, military whatever) came up with a number of 2500 functional tanks BEFORE the "special MO", of those all the modern ones have been destroyed and as of latest info only about 800 are left in total.
Ukraine keeps shooting down Russian aircraft almost on a daily basis because the Russian generously have not eliminated their air defenses - which would be priority one for anyone with a functioning military mind - but they have destroyed all the Ukrainian training centers?? with WHAT? They have run out of precision munitions a while ago. What they have left is able to hit a 150-200m radius. But maybe they got thru the defense and THEN also got lucky with a hit. But ever time?
4 HIMARS (four!!) are forcing the Russian mighty fleet to leave their ports and escape to a save distance. Well, save as long as the USA does not deliver 300km range munitions that hit within a 5 meter radius.
Since my last msg here and my prediction of a Ukrainian victory in 2023 only 4 weeks have passed. what Russian gains on the map do you see? TINY ones, and in areas where they are 10-1 superior in artillery. At the same time they loose 200 men in combat and on average 20-50 by behind-the-lines OPs of the Urkainian special forces EVERY DAY. And in Kherson the Ukraine even makes small advances.
In the meantime Finland and Sweden became Nato members as Turkey had been bribed into giving up its resistance. Btw: not single member of nato was ever forced to join, not directly nor indirectly. Nato as an alliance has also never started a war or attacked anyone (not counting the misguided attempts to save muslims in Kosovo). Even now they are very conservative in the support of Ukraine. And still Russia is not getting anywhere.
Russia is now so desperate that it has to "borrow" munitions from Belarus. And ONLY because the USA forbade the Ukrainians to shoot at stuff outside Ukraine those trains arrive. However, bridges and train tracks and even munition depots accidentally blow up inside Russia. Corruption and low motivation to kill ones neighbors who have never been a threat must really undermine the state of willingness to fight for a USSR 2.0.
It is so funny to hear Putin talk about the west exploiting other countries when the USSR which he wants to re-establish did exactly that for the entirety of its existence. And if you tried to do something about it - Russian TANKS where the surefire result. Poland (sold out to Stalin by the British), Hungary and East Germany can tell about it! and Grosni, and Aghanistan, and Georgia ... but hey, Putin is the good guy here!
But back to the war at hand: what do you think happens if the US and Britain deploy not 4 or 5 but 50 Himars systems which I am sure are not operated by Ukrainians but by US special forces in Ukrainian Uniforms. The same way Russian special forces "worked" in Ukraine since 2014. Combined with the superior US military recon abilities (satellites that can read a newspaper from space can certainly get a fix on every munitions depot). That will be the end of the Russian experiment in Ukraine and Putin can count his blessings if he politically survives.
Time will tell. Meanwhile closer to home the Euro has lost 20% of its value which is bad for anyone planing to do a trip outside the Euro zone but good for a country that thrives off export. And what country would that be? of the 1.3 trillion euros export annually about 30 where done with Russia. This will get much less now but at the same time Germany will not pay as much to Putin for oil and gas. And maybe, just maybe, the green/red "government" we currently have consisting mainly of people with a rather dreamy world view and very little experience in the real world can still see the flaws in the "all green" energy policy and get back to producing the safest nuclear reactors in the world. Or something better. I hear fusion is around the corner. and then there are the salt reactors. And wind and solar aint bad if batteries get cheaper and better which they are. so the future looks bright. without gas and oil from Russia. I am not saying we have no problems, we do, but compared to Russia ours are tiny.
I keep saying: if the west keeps up the support for Ukraine they simply can not lose this conflict. Its a number game. Even if one does not count in military wisdom that one needs a 3:1 superiority in troops to hold a country.
Interesting.

- 'A New World Order Is Coming' - Putin Blasts "Globalist" Ideology As "Totalitarian"
- (Dutch 🇳🇱 + Multi-Language Options). 🦜🦋🌳
WILD speech from Putin as he continues to lambast the “Liberal-Globalist Order” every time he steps in front of a microphone. Whether you are a fan of Putin or not, you are still going to want to hear what he said.
- Putin Assures Destruction of “Western Globalist Elite”
Putin appeared at the ASI forum “Strong Ideas for a New Time”. A collection of 200 Russian elites and local leaders/representatives.
Putin points out the unfairness of the “Western Oligarchy”, (Deep State) and their total dominance of the world. Highlighting how their rule has impeded the advancement of all human civilization.
He goes on to correctly assert that the “globalist and supposedly liberal ideology is increasingly acquiring the features of totalitarianism.”
How can you not agree with him? Put aside that he’s the leader of Russia. Is what he saying not 100% correct? Sounds exactly like something Trump would say.
Putin would conclude that “no matter how much Western and globalist elites strive to preserve the existing order, a new era is dawning, a new stage in world history.”
Kinda sounds to me like Putin is saying ‘nothing can stop what is coming’, and that we are witnessing the destruction of the ‘old guard’. He remains consistent in his public appearances that the downfall of the Western Elite/Liberal-Globalist World Order is “impossible to stop”.
If I were to take the transcript of this speech, and handed it to every single Trump supporter, and told them Trump said it, nearly 100% would support it. If I told them Putin said it, many of them would turn their noses up in disgust.
Why should we disregard what Putin is saying, when what he is saying is correct? That’s just illogical. Russia is not wrong just because they are Russia, and the US are not right just because they are the US. All the evidence points to Russia’s allegations being legitimate. If you can’t accept this, you are a victim of decades of nationalist propaganda.
I’m not saying Russia are innocent. No country is. But what they are saying about the US is correct, and ignoring their allegations just because they are our enemy, is not a sustainable foreign policy.
In conclusion, Putin is confident the Liberal-Globalist world order are being destroyed and soon will be replaced by a new, multi-polar world order. I think that sounds like a great idea. Trump seems to think so as well. None of us can know for sure what the future holds, but it can’t be worse than the current status quo.
Clandestine
Now according to Russian MIL, the DNC funded Biolabs in Ukraine are connected to NUCLEAR WEAPONS?!?
- Russian State Media in America Covering Biolabs!
Keep in mind the Biden admin BANNED RT news at the beginning of the war. If you try to click on RT's Telegram page, you will see a "This channel can't be displayed because it violated local laws".
The "local laws" being they are talking about the massive secret the global deep state are so desperately clinging onto.
This is why. Biolabs. Biden. Soros. And now apparently linked to nuclear weapons. All of it is coming to light.
This is a powerful normie waking tool. Normies see a well-articulated man in a suit talking on the TV, they tend to believe him.
WATCH VIDEO IN LINK ATTACHED! ... IT IS HAPPENING!!

WILDE speech by Putin, who continues to denounce the “Liberal-Globalist Order” every time he stands in front of a microphone. Whether you're a fan of Putin or not, you'll still want to hear what he said, Clandestine writes .

Putin points out the unfairness of the “Western Oligarchy”, (Deep State) and their total domination of the world. Emphasizing how their rule has hindered the progress of all human civilization.
He further rightly claims that the “globalist and so-called liberal ideology is increasingly taking on the features of totalitarianism.”
How can you not agree with him? Do not consider that he is the leader of Russia. Is what he says not 100% correct? It sounds exactly like something Trump would say.

Russian Foreign Minister Sergey Lavrov talks Ukraine, sanctions and nuclear war | July 20, 2022
Source: rt.com
Source: https://www.bitchute.com/video/oX03L3Vkf6sY
Russian Foreign Minister Sergey Lavrov spoke about Russia’s military campaign in Ukraine, sanctions and the confrontation with the West in an interview to RT and Sputnik on Wednesday.
Speaking with RT Editor-in-Chief Margarita Simonyan, the minister explained why, despite a promising start, peace talks with Ukraine effectively broke down in spring.
He shared his views about the risks of a nuclear war with the West and how Western-supplied heavy weapons affect the fighting on the ground in Ukraine, as well as decision-making in Moscow regarding the conflict.
Lavrov also discussed the effects of the sanctions on the European economy and the delivery of Russian gas to EU member states.
I think your earlier speculation on its bizarreness is accurate :) The report is riddled with unsubstantiated claims such as (paraphrasing) "..50,000 Russian troops believed to have been killed since the beginning of the conflict.." etc. This looks like it was cooked up in a propaganda silo somewhere as part of a made for TV pilot. "...soldiers running around in a panic, starring..."
Flimflam here
UPDATE: perhaps I was hasty in my dismissal. Subsequent posts attest that kamikaze AFU drones did attack the plant. Still, some of the 'facts' in the article not pertaining to this incident are unsubstantiated.
Okay, I can't really reply as I'd quite like to (as a mod), so instead I'm going to channel Mashika. :P

You obviously wouldn't know a fact about this situation if it bit you in the ***
Have you ever been to Ukraine, no
Have you ever been to Russia, no
Do you know a thing about war, no
Do you understand anything at all about this situation, no
