“The US is turning its vehicles into a Trojan horse”: An expert on Egypt’s “punishment” for buying Russian Su-35
The United States, threatening to punish Egypt for buying Russian Su-35s, thereby turns its equipment into a Trojan horse, which at a convenient time for Washington can bring its owners, I am sure the State Duma deputy, defense technology expert Vladimir Gutenev.
In America, they aggressively responded to the message about military cooperation between Moscow and Cairo and Egypt’s procurement of the latest Russian Su-35 fighters. In Washington, it was recalled that countries buying weapons from Russia should fear the consequences for this - for example, in the form of sanctions.
State Duma Deputy, Chairman of the State Duma Commission for the Legal Support of the Development of the Russian Federation of Defense Industry Organizations, President of the Association for the Defense Enterprises Assistance Association Vladimir Gutenev believes that in this way Washington continues to destroy its image of a reliable partner. With the help of dishonest receptions, the US is trying to influence Russia's economic relations with other countries, he noted.
"If America is groundlessly trying to use the sanctions mechanism on any occasion, then those countries that show excessive compliance and risk their own security and sovereignty by buying American equipment may well face US sanctions for any reason forcing them to make certain economic decisions "- says the expert.
According to Gutenev, now potential buyers of American technology should be borne in mind that, unlike Moscow, Washington is not very demanding about using undeclared capabilities. "This makes the equipment supplied by the United States a Trojan horse, which in a certain period may not fully perform its functions," he said.
