CHINA-RUSSIA: CHINESE DRONE MANUFACTURER DISTANCES ITSELF FROM REMARKS OF FORMER RUSSIAN CHIEF OF GENERAL STAFF

In response to comments by General (Yury Nikolayevich) Baruyevsky, Former Russian Chief of General Staff, extolling the Mavic quadcopter drone, made by China's DJI, as in principle having "become a true symbol of modern warfare", the DJI sought to distance itself from the remarks. It said "All DJI products are designed for civilian purposes, to serve people's production and lives, and are dedicated to benefiting society and making life better. DJI's products are not suitable and do not meet the needs of military use, and we do not support any applications in the military field".

(Comment: General Yury Nikolayevich Baruyevsky made those remarks in the preface of his new book Alien Wars – A New Paradigm, published on August 10 at the Centre for Analysis of Strategies and Technologies, the leading Russian defense industry and arms trade think tank.)
