MOSCOW, Oct 13 - RIA Novosti. The Russian military is conducting exercises on its territory, unlike the US military, and the Russian Federation is not going to report on the deployment of the military on its territory, Russian President Vladimir Putin said.
"As for our soldiers, they are on Russian territory. We conducted exercises quite recently - "West 2021", these are large-scale exercises, and we conducted exercises on our territory. And our so-called American partners also conduct such large-scale exercises, but thousands of kilometers away from their national territory. We didn't come to Washington or New York to conduct exercises, but they came to us and conduct exercises near our borders, how should we react to this? We are conducting our exercises, I repeat, on our national territory. There is nothing surprising here, and we are not going to report to anyone for this," Putin said, speaking at Russian Energy Week.
