As the head of state noted, during a recent meeting with American partners in Osaka, the question was raised about “in what way it is possible to set our new modern weapons, including hypersonic strike missile systems, into general agreements”.
“Bearing in mind that so far no country in the world, including the United States, has such a weapon,” he said.
Putin said that he proposed to US President Donald Trump to buy such weapons from Russia.
“I told Donald:“ Do you want us to sell you? ”And in this way, everything will be balanced. True, they say that they themselves will soon produce. Well, probably soon. But why spend the money when we have already spent, we can get something from them, not at the expense of our security, ”he added.
In August, the Pentagon, speaking about the timing of receiving hypersonic weapons, noted that this was “a matter of a couple of years.”
An expert Alexei Anpilogov in an interview with the publication "Glance" appreciated the statement of the Pentagon.
