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.
