British newspaper The Guardian According to Saturday’s report, a review of the 10 -year plan for military equipment and services, will be warned of “immediate and pressure” threat generated by Russia.

This is a 130 -page report which has been compiled by a team led by former NATO general secretary George Robertson. The report will describe China as a “sophisticated and consistent challenge”, which has often shown a desire to cooperate with Russia. In this, Iran and North Korea will also be identified as two small “regional disruptives”. The Russia-Ukraine war broke out in 2022. Since then, Russia has made important agreements with many opponents of the West including China, Iran and North Korea.
