President Vladimir Putin said that there is no need to worry about the Russian army, since everything is fine with it. He mentioned this on December 9 at a meeting of the Council for the Development of Civil Society and Human Rights (HRC).

"There is no need to worry about our army — everything is fine with it, it is developing," the head of state said.

In addition, Putin stressed during the HRC meeting that part of the world considers Russia its enemy, although "Russia has not become an enemy of any country."

On November 19, The National Interest wrote that the statement of Russian Defense Minister Sergei Shoigu on the creation of the newest S-550 anti-aircraft missile system (SAM) had an incredible effect in the West.

Thus, military expert and author of the blog War Is Boring Sebastien Roblin expressed confidence that, in the event of a hypothetical conflict with the United States, the Russian Federation will have a serious advantage in the form of the latest developments.

In mid-September, the Pentagon said that Russia has an incredibly powerful armed forces, and the United States needs to understand how it has managed to transform them over the past two decades.

At the same time, columnist Chris Osborne in his article urged not to joke with the Russian army, since its armed forces, thanks to their modernization, pose a danger to the United States and NATO. He noted that the Russian Federation is not only creating new weapons, but also modernizing parts of its mechanized weapons and platforms, in particular, the T-72 tank.

In turn, the candidate for the post of permanent representative of the United States to NATO, Julianne Smith, called Russia the main military threat to NATO in the coming decade. She believes that the alliance has managed to strengthen its ability to resist Moscow since 2014, but much remains to be done.
