Majlis Research Centre Studies: The impact of global economic crisis 2008 on the military decisions of major global powers

According to MRC public relations department, the deputy research with the expression of this global economic crisis in the report considered that the economic and financial crisis caused by great powers and their military decisions have been effective, and said: Academic model to reduce military costs is the same as optimal inhibitor activity.

The deputy research added: U.S., following the global economic crisis in 2008, increased the military budget and reduced costs, Russia supported military industries and China intends to balance the budget and its military defense.
By describing the status of U.S. government in this report is added: "Obama administration is trying to maintain military budget, the defense costs and to reduce its current program of investment projects and remove fast efficiency projects during the Cold War. Robert Gates was the designer of this innovation, which keeps the balance of increasing military budget, decreasing defense costs and concentrating o­n personnel talent and focuses o­n current curriculum of international war against terrorism, were his defense management factors. Robert Gates remained in his position as Secretary of Defense, reportedly for at least a year.'
MRC added: according to the Pentagon defense budget plan, overall cost of the U.S. war in Afghanistan and Iraq reaches a trillion dollars. This amount includes 636 billion which 128 billion dollars has been allocated for the war in Afghanistan and Iraq, also the government has announced that more funding require in early 2010.
Gates and Mullen declared that in spite of reduced defense expenditures, the country should devote at least 4 percent of its GNP, to defense affairs, even in peace time.
Since the GDP and GNP are increasing, each year the defense budget ceiling will be added. Though, U.S strategic think tank in this international financial crisis now believe that U.S national security won't provide by increasing defense budget, and military and security costs will not be deleted, and instead to stop slow efficiency contracts and cancel to purchase weapons during the Cold War can provide national security under condition of war against terrorism.
It is added that there is direct and obvious relationship between U.S. strategic and economic capabilities. While the state lacks the financial infrastructure for providing the possibility of military costs, possibilities of organizing operational processes and the U.S. strategic will restrict. Thus, the center of gravity in the Obama administration is Inhibitory defense policy increase or maintain the desired focus level military budget combined with reduced costs of defense. So, the potential for personnel in the war o­n terrorism preparedness is emphasized.
MRC studied the status of Russia in this field and added: "The Russian government intend to increase the defense budget and military expenses, As many strategic industrial projects are supported by subsidies, so the economic crisis affects o­n Russia's military economy, but also Moscow government intend to provide financial benefits derived strategic projects and the Russian military also plans to try to promote the professional army.
Consequently, China following the global economic crisis, sought to create a balance between increasing military budget and to maintain their level of public funding also reduction of the military budgets can inefficient it's military forces against the possible riots and also, would expand social riots. Therefore china focuses o­n the highest military budget and the cost of its defense spending and personal talent of war network.
due to high damages in China's export crisis following the global economic crisis, naturally the state wants to solve this crisis by increasing its trade balance, but the country works to increase liquidity had lower impact o­n national economy than other countries, especially it has less effects o­n military economy.
