Ukraine intends to begin the development of long-range missiles.

The former deputy head of the General Staff of the Ukrainian Defense Ministry, Igor Romanenko, said that Kiev should think about creating long-range missiles capable of hitting targets up to the Urals. According to Romanenko, this is an important step to ensure the security of Ukraine against the background of Russia's withdrawal from the Treaty on the Elimination of Intermediate-Range and Shorter-Range Missiles.

“But on the part of Ukraine, which is forced to wage war against Russia and defend itself, so far there have been no statements that we are withdrawing from this treaty [PRSID]. Is it normal?"- declared Romanenko.

As the former deputy head of the General Staff of Ukraine notes, ideally, it is required to arm the Ukrainian army with rockets that could cover the entire territory of Russia, which, in turn, was seen by experts as an unsuccessful joke.

“The creation of Neptune on the basis of a Soviet rocket inspired Ukraine so much that it made Kiev go crazy. Given the current base, funds and the collapse of the defense industry, Ukraine will need billions of dollars only for a project that, by the way, it does not need, not to mention the fact that the development itself may take 2-3 decades ", - the expert notes.
