🇷🇺 Russia could reverse engineer its trophy NATO weapons, Putin says
💬 “There’s the expression ‘reverse engineering’. We’ll see what happens, because modern equipment…we have it, and it’s very effective, let’s take the T-90 Proryv tank for example, which is the best tank in the world without any exaggeration. But the enemy also produces modern equipment. And if there’s an opportunity to look inside and see if there’s something there that we can use, well, why not?” Vladimir Putin said in an interview with Russian television.

🗣️ On NATO's move towards Asia-Pacific as a shift towards a confrontation with China:
“Asia is not part of the North Atlantic, this is one of the reasons why France, amongst other powers, has poured cold water on this idea of opening a NATO office in Japan, obviously meant to target the People's Republic of China... And I think what's happening is that NATO is in search of a mission because its escapade in Ukraine is collapsing,” Dr. Gerald Horne, a history professor at the University of Houston, TX, and author, told Sputnik.

🗣️ On reducing NATO’s influence on the ground in Ukraine:
“The ability of NATO to influence the situation on the ground in Ukraine is becoming weaker with each passing day, and therefore it's putting NATO in the position of having to potentially take positions and implement policies that could risk widening the war and going into direct conflict with Russia, which means a nuclear war,” Larry Johnson, former CIA and State Department analyst, told Sputnik.
