U.S.-Russian Military Theories and Practices

The Cold War has ended, ushering in a new phase in U.S. and Russian study of military theories, especially on contemporary warfare. They have come up with new theories, new concepts, and new policies. Today, U.S. and Russian armed services are revising their strategies and tactics based on these new theories, concepts, and policies.

Compared to the Cold War era, there are six major developments and changes.

I. National security: The concept has changed in intension and extension; new "security outlook" and "national defense outlook" are being proposed.
During the Cold War, nations generally took "national security" to mean "military security." After the Cold War, the international environment has changed dramatically, and the United States and Russia have come up with a new "security outlook" and "national defense outlook."

Imperialist capitalist pigs....hmmmm. seems to me that if that is what we are, you must be that too. After all, Russia was involved in imperialism. Seems to me that your foreign policy was even dominated by trying to obtain warm water ports. why would you do that if you didn't want to compete on an international level? and my god. capitalist pigs!? i think that you should just shut up and stop complaining about something that you don't have. Don't hate america just because your country isn't the richest in the world. I go to a private school, and there are plenty of europeans who say that they hated america before they came over here. But their views changed once they arrived, and many of them continue to come back to visit, and some have even stayed. so, i wouldn't believe everything that they tell you in history class, or on the news, because you know nothing about AMERICA. I'll write more about this later, i have to go take my AP European Exam.
