Moscow (IINA) – Russian President Vladimir Putin said Tuesday that his country will be developing strike systems capable of penetrating any missile defense shield, Russia’s TASS News Agency reported.
"We’ll be working on the anti-missile defense system as well, but at the first stage, as we have said on many occasions, we’ll also be working on strike systems capable of penetrating any anti-missile defense shield," Putin said at a meeting on the development of the Russian Armed Forces.
He added that the meeting would discuss the development of such weapon systems that would determine the outlook of the Russian Armed Forces for the next decade and will become a response to the challenges confronted by Russia.
Putin said the true goal of the U.S. missile defense shield in Europe is to neutralize Russia’s nuclear potential.
