The British commanders commented on the fighting efficiency and capacity of the army of the United Kingdom. According to the Chief of Staff of the British Armed Forces General Nicholas Carter, British Army today largely lags behind Russia. It is reported by Information Service Sputnik.
According to Carter, British armed forces require substantial retooling, to "protect the country" and give it "financial stability".
Carter called the period of time since the end of World War II "historical holidays, which came to an end ". By the logic of the British general, 70 odd years the British Army almost perfected the approach to its development, but because "time is largely wasted". About, that it had to do seven decades of UK Army, I had time for this time to participate in dozens of provocations and armed conflict, Mr. Carter decided not to specify.
In this case, Carter stressed, that the British Army today lags behind not only from the Russian army, but also from the army of the People's Republic of China.
The conclusion of such messages from the NATO generals, as usual, one - requests for increased funding, which is already tens of billions of pounds is calculated.
Recall, Earlier in London, accused Russia of "first chemical attack in Europe since the end of World War II". Evidence is still looking.
