According to Shoigu, Russia can defend itself, both from the sea and from the air.
The head of the defense Ministry Sergei Shoigu said that in 2017 plans to complete the installation of missile systems, which, according to him, will be able to protect the entire border of the country.
He said this on the results of Russian-Japanese consultations in the 2+2 format in Tokyo, responding to a question about placing the complex in the occupied Kuril Islands.
“We will complete this year the closure of the entire perimeter of the territory of the Russian Federation, both from the sea and from the air. And leave some unprotected space hardly makes sense. Therefore, the entire perimeter of the borders of the Russian Federation will be protected from the sea and from the air. About the land I’m not talking,” insists Sergei Shoigu.
We will remind, earlier it was reported that Japan has promised to take action in connection with the deployment of Russian missiles on the Kuril Islands.
