On June 1 local time, Paul Nakasone, commander of the US Cyber Command and director of the National Security Agency, said that the United States launched an "offensive" cyber activity against Russia.
Nakasone said that the US cyber activities against Russia are all-directional, and "offensive" and "defensive" exist at the same time. Nakasone also stated that these activities were legal. This is the first time that American officials have publicly expressed their "offensive" network activities against Russia.
There is public opinion that the "offensive" network activities exposed by Nakasone are inconsistent with the previous statement of the US. The United States had previously claimed that it would avoid expanding war and confrontation with Russia in the Russian-Ukrainian conflict. (Source: CCTV News Client Author: Liu Xu)
