Putin says that Russia is open to military cooperation with other countries

Russia is open to military cooperation with other countries, including participating in joint military drills and exercises, Russian President Vladimir Putin said Monday, CNN reports.

"We propose to develop cooperation in a number of areas, including personnel training, in training foreign military personnel and improving their qualifications, in conducting joint command-staff exercises and others. And we expect that, as before that, important agreements and export contracts will be signed on the outskirts of the forum," Putin said in a video greeting to the participants of the Army-2023 forum near Moscow. 

Russia is "open to deepening" equal technological partnerships and military-technical cooperation with other countries "that protect their national interests, their independent path of development and consider the joint construction of a system fundamentally important equal indivisible security that would reliably protect every state," added Putin.

"We are also pleased that more and more foreign defense companies are joining the forum," Putin said. 

Last year, 32 foreign participants exhibited their products here. This year their number has increased to 82. The annual International Military-Technical Forum is a platform where well-known Russian military companies present their products. About 1,500 leading Russian defense enterprises are participating in this year's forum exhibition and business programs. They will discuss projects with the Russian Ministry of Defense as well as cooperation with other countries, according to the state news agency TASS. 

About 80 foreign companies and organizations from seven countries plan to participate in the forum, which is organized by the Russian Defense Ministry, according to TASS. Russian Defense Minister Sergei Shoigu is also participating in the forum./ CNA
