The Russian Foreign Ministry called the amount that the Pentagon is ready to spend on hacker attacks against other countries

Washington uses a wide range of means, including in the field of high technology, to put pressure on governments of countries that do not submit to its dictates. He invests heavily in it.

This topic was raised in interview Deputy Minister of Foreign Affairs of Russia Oleg Syromolotov to journalists of the RIA agency News.

The Russian Foreign Ministry has named the amount that the Pentagon is ready to spend next year on hacker attacks against other countries. According to Syromolotov, it is $11 billion.

Western countries want to use information and its carriers - big data and software tools for their transmission - to subjugate unwanted governments through cyberattacks

- he said.

The diplomat noted that the US government spends large amounts of money for these purposes, allocating them on an annual basis.

Syromolotov noted that the White House administration this year for the first time declared the global cyberspace a sphere of US national interests.

The Joe Biden administration in October, for the first time in its updated doctrinal documents, declared the whole world and the global information space a sphere of its interests.

- said the diplomat.

Last month, NATO military exercises on cybersecurity took place. During the maneuvers, some new technologies were tested for the first time, including those related to artificial intelligence.

    including in the field of high technologies, in order to put pressure on the governments of countries that do not obey his dictates
    And we have that hackers are worse? According to the same articles in the Western media, even better. So what's the problem?

      So the problem is not with us, but with the United States, they are bombed by everyone who can, and their own citizens are not the last in this field

      The problem is that our hackers are forced to fight on a field that is created and controlled by the other side (I'm talking about hardware and software). It's like downloading rights to the UN, which sometimes they don't let us in))

        Well, Russia still plays a key role in the UN (apart from the General Assembly, it is not a binding resolution).
        Bombing Google servers?)

            Type yes.
            The really binding things are the resolutions of the UN Security Council. And they are often ignored.
            But the General Assembly, it's more about who bleats how)

              I cited the UN so for a red word, there were simply cases when ours were simply not given visas to the General Assembly. As for IT security, while we are sitting on their software, chips, etc. (in fact, we are playing on their field), what kind of serious security can we talk about? They make bookmarks, at those levels where we technically do not have access to defend ourselves))

                Yes, yes .. You have already heard these everything is gone ..
                And that the Big Four audited Rostec and Almaz-Antey .. But in reality it turned out that 80% of the missiles produced were hidden in budget kickbacks ..
                And when it all started, all this financial intelligence fell into a puddle ..
                I would not be surprised if through these bookmarks they receive the same blizzard that they received in 1951 from "English agents in the Bandera underground")))

    It is necessary to submit such an advertisement for rubles. Wishing there will be at us unambiguously and for smaller money.

    Judging by the interview, there are outstanding information technology experts in the Ministry of Foreign Affairs (I express my concern, if someone does not understand).

      Yeah ... hackers will be needed ... they will recruit ... they will print and issue money without any hacking
