Russian President Vladimir Putin opens a meeting on military‑technical cooperation by stressing that, despite Western pressure, Russia fulfilled its 2025 arms export contracts to over 30 countries and earned more than 15 billion dollars, money he says will help modernize defense plants, expand capacity, and fund new research. He highlights a growing portfolio of new export orders and more than 340 joint military‑technology projects with 14 countries, and calls for significantly higher export volumes under a new 2026–2028 program, with special focus on partners in the CIS, CSTO, and Africa, including licensed production, servicing of earlier deliveries, and deeper cooperation to bolster security across Eurasia and the African continent.
