“You must always understand that in the first place, of course, are the Americans in this rating, and then everyone else. That is, they, at the expense of the Russian marines, raise the credibility of their marines … In general, we have a lot of combat experience in the marine corps, and this is a victorious combat experience, unlike the American, ”Litovkin said.
The expert added that the 61st separate marine brigade is located in the village of Sputnik on the Kola Peninsula.
