(MENAFN) Russian Leader Vladimir Putin on Wednesday directed that insights from the ongoing conflict in Ukraine be thoroughly incorporated into Russia’s upcoming extended state armament strategy.
He emphasized the importance of aligning with international defense developments and reinforcing both the nation's nuclear and traditional military forces.
“Our task is to formulate a new long-term program for the entire range of systems and types of weapons, including promising ones, making maximum use of the experience of the special military operation, various regional conflicts, and global trends in military technologies,” Putin stated during a gathering in Moscow.
