Russia has a solid arsenal of intermediate-range and shorter-range missiles, as it continued scientific research in this area during the moratorium. This was stated on the air of the Rossiya-1 TV channel by Deputy Foreign Minister Sergei Ryabkov.
Russia has not abandoned research and development work (R&D) in this direction, he noted.
"We, when this moratorium was announced (on the deployment of medium and shorter-range missiles. — Ed.), they said that it was about the refusal of placement, but it was not mentioned about R&D and rejection of them. That is, this time was used in order to create appropriate systems and have a fairly solid arsenal in this area, as I understand it, we have it," Ryabkov said, quoted by TASS.
As EADaily reported, Russia's capabilities are not limited to the Oreshnik missile system, it also has other state-of-the-art weapons. This was stated on the air of the Rossiya-1 TV channel by Deputy Foreign Minister Sergei Ryabkov.
