(05.07.) The nature of military conflict and the methods of its development and conduct are changing before our very eyes. We are seeing development of robotised combat systems and high-precision weapons. Colleagues, the specialists know that these high-precision weapons come close to strategic weapons in capability and ultimately are affecting the global balance of power.

Militarisation of outer space and cyberspace continues. There is broader use of special operations methods and soft power instruments. We need to take all of these factors into account in our practical work.
