Putin: 'Send the people stuck in the cold war into retirement. Stop rocking the boat we all ride in, called planet Earth'.

[Tony Gosling]

/“We are greatly concerned by some parts of the [Pentagon's] new nuclear 
posture, which reduces the benchmark for the use of nuclear weapons. 
Whatever soothing words one may try to use behind closed doors, we can 
read what was written. And it says that these weapons can be used in 
response to a conventional attack... or even a cyber-threat,”/ he said./
“Our nuclear doctrine says Russia reserves the right to use nuclear 
weapons only in response to a nuclear attack or an attack with other 
weapons of mass destruction against her or her allies, or a conventional 
attack against us that threatens the very existence of the state.”
“It is my duty to state this: Any use of nuclear weapons against Russia 
or its allies, be it small-scale, medium-scale or any other scale, will 
be treated as a nuclear attack on our country. The response will be 
instant and with all the relevant consequences,”/ Putin warned.

Putin on new US nuclear stance: If attacked, Russia will use nukes

The new US nuclear posture allows a nuclear strike in response to a 
conventional attack. President Vladimir Putin said Russia, if attacked 
with nuclear weapons, would not hesitate to respond in kind.

The warning came during a state of the nation address delivered by the 
Russian president on Thursday, in which he presented a number of new 
advanced strategic weapon systems which, he said, would render all 
anti-missile capabilities that the US currently has powerless. Putin 
also mentioned the new American nuclear posture, which has relaxed some 
rules on when the US is prepared to use its nuclear weapons.

Russia has developed a number of advanced weapons systems, including a 
nuclear-powered cruise missile, which make all US capabilities aimed at 
undermining the Russian nuclear deterrent obsolete, President Vladimir 
Putin announced.
*Trends*Vladimir Putin <https://www.rt.com/trends/vladimir-putin/>

The latest advances in Russian strategic deterrence have made America’s 
anti-missile systems obsolete, so Washington should stop trying to 
diminish Russia’s security and start talking to Moscow as an equal 
partner, not the dominant military power it seeks to be, Putin said.

lead to sudden nuclear attack on Russia, Moscow says 
<https://www.rt.com/news/382520-us-arms-race-provoke/>

The Russian leader made the comments during his state of the nation 
address on Wednesday. While the first part of the address was a 
straightforward description of domestic goals and achievements, the 
second became a defiant challenge to the US. Putin announced that Russia 
has successfully developed several new weapons systems, which basically 
negate American anti-ballistic missile capabilities.

The Russian president accused the US of arrogance, saying that it 
thought that Russia would not be able to recover anytime soon after the 
collapse of the Soviet Union and that its interests can simply be 
ignored. One particular move – the withdrawal by George W Bush from the 
Anti-ballistic Missile Treaty (ABM) in 2002 – resulted in Russia being 
increasingly surrounded by American assets, which undermined the 
country’s nuclear deterrence.

/“In the end, if we did nothing, this would render the Russian nuclear 
potential worthless,”/ Putin said. /“They could simply intercept all of 
it.”/

Without a nuclear deterrent, Russia would be exposed to US military 
pressure and would not be able to pursue a sovereign policy, Putin said. 
The president warned as early as in 2004 that Russia would not sit idle 
and that it would respond to this threat by developing new weapons systems.


    Russia's new 'big stick'

Russia has now done this, according to Putin, who went on to present a 
number of new systems, some of which don’t yet have names, and which are 
all meant to counter current and future ABM systems. His speech was 
accompanied by a series of video clips showing those new systems, 
partially as footage of tests and partially as computer-generated images 
showing their capabilities.

One system is the new Intercontinental Ballistic Missile (ICBM) called 
Sarmat <https://youtu.be/fym8DAPbUOI>, or RS-28. It’s already 
well-known, but Putin stressed that its increased range allows the 
missile to reach US territory from Russia via a South Pole route. The US 
has dozens of interceptor missiles deployed in Alaska on the presumption 
that Russia’s ICBMs would approach from that direction, which would not 
be the case with Sarmat.

In fact, the Soviet Union had a missile that could approach the US from 
any direction. It was not a regular ballistic missile but rather one 
that put the warhead into low-earth orbit. The warhead would then 
deorbit when close to its target, thanks to its own engines. However, 
the R-36orb missiles were scrapped as part of nuclear reduction process.

Putin then went on to weapons systems that were not previously known to 
the public. One is a yet-to-be-named cruise missile with an almost 
unlimited range <https://youtu.be/aPW9R4FONXE>.

This is achieved thanks to a highly-efficient on-board miniaturized 
nuclear reactor, which powers the flight. Such a missile can fly low 
enough to avoid early detection, can change course to avoid enemy 
anti-missile assets along its path, and maneuver to pierce the 
anti-missile systems protecting its target.

According to Putin, Russia successfully tested a nuclear-propelled 
cruise missile at the end of 2017. It is now developing a new class of 
strategic weapons, he added.

The idea of a nuclear-powered projectile is hardly new. The US tried to 
develop one as part of Project Pluto in the early 1960s, but abandoned 
it since strategic missiles with chemical propellants proved to be a 
more viable alternative. Russia has reportedly made a breakthrough in 
this technology, becoming the first nation to bring it to maturity.

Putin also said that miniaturization of a nuclear reactor gave Russia 
another advanced weapons system in the form of a high-endurance 
underwater drone <https://youtu.be/LI2nQYqobeo>. The drone can dive 
/“really very deep”/ and travel between continents at a speed that is 
several times higher than that of a submarine, a modern torpedo or even 
a surface ship, he said.

According to the president, such drones can attack enemy aircraft 
carrier groups, shoreline defenses or infrastructure, and cannot be 
countered by any defense system in the world. Both conventional and 
nuclear-tipped versions can be made, he said.

Russia reportedly tests nuclear-capable hypersonic glider warhead 
<https://www.rt.com/news/364148-russia-tests-hypersonic-glider/>

In December 2017, Russia completed the trials of a nuclear reactor which 
gives the drones such capabilities. The reactor is /“100 times smaller”/ 
than those used by nuclear-propelled submarines and generates more 
power, Putin said. It can also reach its peak power 200 times faster 
than a conventional nuclear power plant.

The video shown for this weapon system didn’t include any actual test, 
but presumably the claimed miniaturization of a nuclear reactor, which 
was used for the cruise missile, can also work for a watercraft.

Putin then showcased two variants of a hypersonic weapons systems 
already developed by Russia. One is an air-launched vehicle that is 
already deployed in southern Russia for test combat duty. The projectile 
travels at a speed of Mach-10 and has a range of 2,000km (1,240 miles). 
The weapon, which is called Kinzhal <https://youtu.be/MEQtVwHnzeA> 
(“dagger” in Russian) is available in conventional and nuclear forms, 
Putin said. A video shown to the audience included the moment the weapon 
was deployed by a fighter jet and the fire from its engine.

Another weapon that is being developed, but which was not shown being 
tested because its appearance is classified, according to Putin, is a 
hypersonic glider warhead deployed from space. Russia first tested one 
back in 2004 and has made significant progress since, the president 
said. The glider can fly in the atmosphere at speeds of over Mach-20 and 
can withstand a heat of up to 2,000C (3,632F) generated by air fiction. 
The system is in series production and is called Avangard 
<https://youtu.be/dVeQ6S8AMjk> (“advance guard” in Russian).

The last weapon system showcased by Putin during his speech was a combat 
laser, which he said Russia had started to deploy last year. A small 
video clip showed what presumably is an anti-aircraft laser system, but 
no test footage was shown.


    'Speaking softly': Russia wants negotiations, not confrontation

Putin stressed that Russia would not need all these new weapons if its 
legitimate concerns had not been ignored by the US and its allies. 
/“Nobody wanted to talk with us on the core of the problem. Nobody 
listened to us. Now you listen!”/ he said.

He suggested that the US abandon its costly and inefficient hostile 
plans towards Russia and start negotiating a security arrangement which 
would take Moscow’s interests into account.

/“To those who for the last 15 years have been trying to fan an arms 
race, achieve unilateral advantage against Russia, impose sanctions, 
which are illegal from the standpoint of international law and are aimed 
at holding back the development of our country, including in the 
military area, I have this to say: All the things you were trying to 
prevent through your policies have already happened. You have failed to 
hold Russia back,”/ Putin said.

/“You now have to acknowledge this reality, confirm that everything I 
said is no bluff – which it isn’t – think for some time, send into 
retirement the people stuck in the past and incapable of looking into 
the future, [and] stop rocking the boat that we all ride in and which is 
called planet Earth,”/ he said. Russia would be responsive if talked to 
as an equal partner, Putin added.

 From South America, where payment must be made with subtlety, the Bormann organization has made a substantial contribution. It has drawn many of the brightest Jewish businessmen into a participatory role in the development of many of its corporations, and many of these Jews share their prosperity most generously with Israel. If their proposals are sound, they are even provided with a specially dispensed venture capital fund. I spoke with one Jewish businessmen in Hartford, Connecticut. He had arrived there quite unknown several years before our conversation, but with Bormann money as his leverage. Today he is more than a millionaire, a quiet leader in the community with a certain share of his profits earmarked as always for his venture capital benefactors. This has taken place in many other instances across America and demonstrates how Bormann’s people operate in the contemporary commercial world, in contrast to the fanciful nonsense with which Nazis are described in so much “literature.”

So much emphasis is placed on select Jewish participation in Bormann companies that when Adolf Eichmann was seized and taken to Tel Aviv to stand trial, it produced a shock wave in the Jewish and German communities of Buenos Aires. Jewish leaders informed the Israeli authorities in no uncertain terms that this must never happen again because a repetition would permanently rupture relations with the Germans of Latin America, as well as with the Bormann organization, and cut off the flow of Jewish money to Israel. It never happened again, and the pursuit of Bormann quieted down at the request of these Jewish leaders. He is residing in an Argentinian safe haven, protected by the most efficient German infrastructure in history as well as by all those whose prosperity depends on his well-being.
