Prepared for a New Conflict: Kremlin Leader Unveils Billion-dollar Arms Project
Russia is gearing up for its largest military rearmament programme since the Cold War, with plans to spend approximately $1.1 trillion by 2036. This ambitious project, still unfolding, is aimed at preparing for a potential large-scale war with NATO by 2030.
According to intelligence circles, this rearmament involves a comprehensive mobilisation of Russia's political system, economy, and society to support the military buildup. The plan includes the establishment of new military districts in Moscow and Leningrad, as well as the formation of new divisions and units.
Lieutenant General Kyrylo Budanov, the Ukrainian Defense Intelligence chief, has revealed these details, highlighting that the bulk of the expenditure is front-loaded to be spent by 2030. Budanov emphasised that this program is not just an upgrade of weapons but a full-scale mobilisation geared toward readiness for a potential future conflict with NATO.
Beyond the military rearmament, Russia is seeking to expand its geopolitical influence, notably in Africa, through proxy forces and support for authoritarian regimes and terrorist groups. This move is part of a broader strategy to undermine the current international security and economic order.
While official Russian budget disclosures, such as the 2025 military budget of about 13.5 trillion rubles (around $172 billion), have been announced, the exact details of spending and allocation remain unclear. Some speculate that the Kremlin may be obscuring certain budget information.
Military experts predict that Russia will launch the next major attack after the Ukraine war. As this developing story continues to unfold, News.de will provide updates. Stay tuned for more information as it becomes available.
Politics and general news often intertwine, as debates and discussions around the world focus on Russia's military rearmament for war-and-conflicts, which is propelled by a comprehensive mobilization of its political system, economy, and society. Moreover, this buildup is accompanied by attempts to expand Russian geopolitical influence, particularly in Africa, in an effort to undermine the existing international order.
