Abstract

Abstract Sun Tzu stated that “if you know the enemy and you know yourself, you should not fear the results of a hundred fights.” It seems, however, that in the last period of time, this maxim of the famous Chinese general has been forgotten and the results of international relations are marked by many and frequent strategic surprises. The most recent of these, the invasion or special military operation of the Russian Federation in Ukraine comes to show us that the opponent can only be counteracted if you know how he thinks and acts or will act in the future. This article brings into focus the correlation between Russian strategic thinking and the actional reality of the Russian-Ukrainian war. The article also contains new ideas on the real undeclared purpose of the war, namely the control of the critical infrastructures of Russian European interest.
