Vladimir Putin announced this today at an extended meeting of the board of the Russian Ministry of Defense.
“The state of the nuclear triad, which plays a key role in maintaining strategic parity, was maintained at the proper level. I would like to note that the share of modern weapons in the nuclear forces was almost 60 percent... We need to do a lot to strengthen the nuclear triad, improve the early warning system, in the Aerospace Forces, and even more at sea, in the ground forces,” the official website quotes Putin as saying Kremlin.
The President believes that Russia must strengthen the combat potential of its strategic nuclear forces, primarily through missile systems that can reliably penetrate existing and future missile defense systems.
