Following the summit of the Shanghai Cooperation Organization (SCO), Russian President Vladimir Putin held a press conference, where he spoke about Russia’s next steps regarding the country’s medium- and short-range missile systems.
Russia could start building intermediate-range nuclear forces after the US “tore up” the treaty banning them, President Vladimir Putin has said.
“If you recall, I said that due to the US withdrawing from the [INF] treaty and announcing that they are starting to produce [the missiles], we also consider ourselves entitled to start research and development work, [first] designing and then manufacturing,” Putin told a press conference at the SCO summit in the Kazakh capital Astana.
