Shoygu said about a forecasting system to predict armed conflict

16 December 2019


Russia invented a model to predict armed conflict, Russian Minister of Defense Sergey Shoygu announced today.


"If we enter into the database all information about the actions of the group in Yugoslavia (when it happened, the number of ships, carriers, rockets, at what time of day it happened, how it took place), then it is like an 'alarm clock' - it rings and notifies:  "You know, it's a very similar situation in this and that part of the world because it's the same number of ships, aircraft carriers, aviation, cruise missile carriers, high-precision weapons, so it's very likely that the same thing will happen in that part of the world as it happened in Yugoslavia," " Zvezda TV" channel quotes Shoygu as saying.


According to Shoygu, it is not just a forecast but a model that provides a mechanism for responding to such situations.


"A model is being developed, which not only determines such 'hot spots' in the world but also develops response mechanisms, considering the mistakes made earlier, to prevent them now", he noted.
