“Now let's talk about modern war and security. I hope that there are no people in this hall who are still hoping for some miracle or wonder, for some white swan that will bring peace to Ukraine, the borders of 1991 or 2022, and after that there will be great happiness.”
"Whether it's pleasant for anyone to hear or not, Russia's ability to wage war will absolutely depend on its availability, first and foremost, of the resources to do so. And somewhere, probably from the end of 2023 to the beginning of 2024, Russia is doing just that. This is a real war to exhaustion.
Ending this war is only possible through the complete destruction of Russia's very ability to wage this war. First of all, I mean the destruction of its military-economic potential.“
”Using new technological capabilities, ensure the following goals:
to make the economic burden of the war unbearable for Russia and its allies, so that it would abandon further waging of the war and accept our conditions on which they could sign an end to the war;
to undermine the economy and social component in order to deprive Russia of the opportunity for scientific and technological development and launch processes of civil unrest and disintegration."
"In addition, when we talk about arms exports, we have to be honest about one more point. Export under management pressure is now absolutely impossible because:
A weapon that is effective now will not be as effective tonight;
Modern technology is not just a tank with improved driving capabilities that can be taken and sold. This is a completely new nature of war. And so the global exporter of security must understand what we have to offer for export:
new weapons;
new technologies for their production;
new forms and methods of their application;
new organizational structures in which this application will be most effective;
then we must also propose new doctrines of application;
new training doctrines;
and as a result – completely new approaches to forming the security sector budget.“
”Before we move on to the final export of technologies, we need coordination between state institutions, public associations, and private businesses to unite around this survival strategy. On such grounds it is necessary to create mechanisms for coordination with the state. And of course, to seek, as far as possible, a balance between the state and business to ensure the level of technologization at the level of state policy."
