Each state that exists today in the world has its own system of internal organs, which ensure its internal and external security. Such law enforcement agencies were created with the aim of protecting state interests in the event of unlawful actions by another party. The national security strategy occupies the main position in this regard, since the ability of the state to carry out its activities and the development of the economy depends on this.
Any state has a certain territory on which the population lives, having its own language, culture, traditions, architectural monuments and so on. All this represents a great cultural heritage, which must be protected, because other countries, due to certain circumstances, can claim this in order to appropriate values for themselves. That is why every state that cares about its citizens and sets a goal for the further development of culture and technology should have a body that controls such an issue as the national security and defense strategy.
If we talk about our power, the Federal Security Service of the Russian Federation is engaged in this, which controls issues of both internal and external nature regarding terrorism, espionage and intelligence. The State Intelligence Agency is also dealing with the latter issue, the activities of which are strictly classified and are not covered anywhere.
Two years ago, our government developed and approved the national strategic security plan of the Russian Federation until 2020, which provides specific protection mechanisms against possible encroachments on our state, as well as a methodology for overcoming the most important issues of our survival. So, for example, one of the most pressing issues for our country is the demographic crisis, since in our last 20 years mortality has far exceeded the birth rate. There are many reasons for this, but the fact remains, and the national security strategy should solve this difficult issue.
Russia has its own characteristics that distinguish it from all other states of the world. Firstly, in terms of the occupied territory, we are in first place, since 1/6 of all land on earth is our power. Secondly, our land is rich in many minerals, among which natural gas and oil deposits are especially prominent. In addition, the Russian Federation extracts minerals such as diamonds. You can no longer talk about the huge forest reserves of both coniferous and deciduous species, with which we are so rich. The national security strategy of the Russian Federation provides not only the protection of all the natural resources of the country from internal and external threats, but also the augmentation of existing wealth and heritage by creating new technologies in science and technology. Everything that has been created by our scientists and engineers on the territory of our country is the property of the people, so all projects and know-how should be carefully preserved and preserved.
Unfortunately, in a market economy, it is quite difficult to protect something from illegal acquisition, since money decides everything in the world of capital. It is for this reason that the canvases of great artists or famous sculptures are periodically stolen, which are then found in the collections of the richest people. The national security strategy should ensure the reliable preservation of all national wealth from such unlawful actions both by ordinary criminals and by encroachments of other states.
Summing up, it should be emphasized once again that the concern for the security of all citizens and the country as a whole falls entirely on the shoulders of the state apparatus. The national security strategy of the Russian Federation until 2020, developed and approved in 2010, examines the key points of the gradual overcoming of all complex issues, as well as the transition of our state to the world level of development. It is hoped that we will be able to solve all problems, as well as see a decent standard of living for all our citizens.
