https://www.rawstory.com/2019/06/pentagon-report-reveals-putins-path-to-world-dominance-requires-taking-down-the-united-states/A group of more than two dozen national security experts authored a white-paper to warn that Russia is operating in a “zero-sum world view” where it isn’t enough that Russia wins, the United States also has to lose.
Axios reported Sunday on the Pentagon report saying Russian President Vladimir Putin’s “grand strategy” for world dominance means taking down the United States.
“Contrary to conventional analysis, after two decades under Vladimir Putin, Russia represents an ideological challenge to the West, not just a political and military rivalry,” the Pentagon report explained. “Although NATO continues to possess impressive overmatch against Moscow, that edge is dwindling, and Western vulnerabilities in certain military areas are alarming. Moreover, the unwillingness of Western experts and governments to confront the ideological — as well as political and military — aspects of our rivalry with Putinism means that the threat of significant armed conflict is rising.”
