Russia\u2019s military-industrial complex should produce all components and materials domestically to alleviate contract and political risks, the Russian president said. Current \u2018hard times\u2019 will be beneficial for the industry at large, said Vladimir Putin.<\/span><\/p>\n

The Russian military industry should phase-out imports rapidly and began full-cycle production of all necessary components and materials, stated President Vladimir Putin at a meeting dedicated to domestic military production on Monday.<\/span><\/p>\n

\u201cThe questions we are discussing are absolutely key issues of Russia\u2019s military and economic security, our technological and industrial independence and technological sovereignty. Our task is to deliver ourselves from contract default risks posed by foreign partners, and the political risks included,\u201d<\/em> said the president.<\/span><\/p>\n

EU-member countries instigated<\/span><\/a> <\/strong><\/span>by the US continue to introduce<\/span><\/a> <\/strong><\/span>sectorial sanctions<\/span><\/a><\/strong><\/span> against Russia over the political crisis in Ukraine. The recent crash of the Malaysian Airlines Boeing 777 in Ukraine only put more oil on the flames, as the EU introduced more<\/span><\/a> <\/strong><\/span>mutually non-beneficial sanctions against the Russian economy.<\/span><\/p>\n

Putin called \u201cto advance the efforts on import substitution within the military-industrial complex and maximum possible transition to domestic materials and components in the production of special hardware and weapons.\u201d<\/em><\/span><\/p>\n

The quality of units and components must be a matter of utmost control, the president stressed.<\/span><\/p>\n

Vladimir Putin said he\u2019s \u201cabsolutely sure\u201d<\/em> that Russia\u2019s defense industry could be fully self-sufficient, with the major issues to be observed without fail: fair pricing, meeting delivery time limits and guaranteed high quality of components produced.<\/span><\/p>\n

\u201cThe difficulties (the Russian military-industrial complex is currently facing) would eventually serve to our benefit, because we\u2019d be forced to organize new production lines we have been previously lacking,\u201d<\/em> Putin said, stressing that Russian industry should not adopt outdated technologies, but pick up only on cutting edge technologies.<\/span><\/p>\n

\u201cBe sure not to waste money and calculate all expenses in advance,\u201d<\/em> the president advised in his address to the conference.<\/span><\/p>\n

Last week an influential Russian daily reported<\/span><\/a> <\/strong><\/span>that the national arms industry had developed a plan to replace its Ukrainian suppliers, lost during the latest crisis in the country, with companies in Belarus and Kazakhstan.<\/span><\/p>\n

The deputy PM in charge of the defense sector, Dmitry Rogozin, earlier announced<\/span><\/a><\/strong><\/span> the Russian government would prepare a plan on import replacement in conventional weapons and present it to the president.<\/span><\/p>\n
