The emergence of legal PMCs will create problems for Russia

As previously reported, 15 January during a press conference the head of the Ministry of Foreign Affairs Sergey Lavrov spoke in favor of the formation of the legal framework of the activities of PMCs.

Head of the Center for International Security, Member of the Russian Academy of Sciences Alexei Arbatov responded negatively to the possible adoption of PMCs law.

“You should seriously consider, Do we need to take such a bill, and create such companies, which will have its own interests, who knows, tomorrow will decide to do in Russia or abroad. Can we them sufficiently controlled? Indeed, the very notion “private” means, that they are not subject to state, that they have their economic and other interests in the conduct of the relevant hostilities, that is, the use of armed violence, and what they can and without, and within us to create a very big problem”, - said Arbatov.

According to the academician, the State must use its legitimate legitimate armed forces.

“I do not understand what's the benefit of using private military companies? that we, We want to hide losses, or we do not want to be responsible for the, who participates in military operations? I do not understand the moral and political side of things. I believe, if we use military force, we should do it honestly and openly, stating its goals and carry out these actions prefektivno”, - said Arbatov.

According to Arbatov, international experience of legislative regulation of the activities of PMCs does not guarantee full control over the activities of private military companies. Wherein, he noted, that those companies, which currently exist in Russia without proper legal grounds, must be eliminated as illegal.

AT 2012 year, Russian Prime Minister Vladimir Putin proposed to create in Russia a network of PMCs, that could take the protection of various objects and training of foreign military abroad without state participation, recalls Infox.
