“I see no reason to revise our military doctrine,” Ria Novosti quotes Ryabkov.

According to the deputy minister, military doctrine is a fundamental document, with very precise formulations that should not depend on certain circumstances.

“Of course, any document over time requires a review, in some aspects of clarification, but in connection with the specific situation around the INF Treaty, I don’t see such grounds,” he added.

Earlier, Ryabkov, commenting on the termination of the treaty, called the United States "gravediggers of the INF Treaty".
