Russian PM to Develop Armed Forces by Its Own Efforts
Moscow, February 21 (KCNA) -- Russian Prime Minister Vladimir Putin in a meeting on Feb. 20 clarified the stand to develop the country's armed forces by its own efforts.

Russia will not plan import of arms and equipment from the West in the future, either, he said, adding that Russia will realize the plan by relying on domestic producers.

In order to rearm the army it is necessary to mobilize not only the defence industry complexes but all the potentials of Russian economy, he stressed.
