President Putin and Premptive Strikes Against Terrorists

President Putin sent antiterrorism legislation this week that would establish guidelines and conditions for when Russian Armed Forces can be mobilized to conduct preemptive strikes against terrorists. The antiterrorism legislation passed with only one reading and with only one session. President Putin now has the authority to take preemptive strikes against terrorists in any form and using any weapons based upon the guidelines and conditions established by the Federation Council.
