MOSCOW, May 28. /TASS/. A retaliatory strike on Kiev that Russia previously warned about could occur at any moment, as Russia has demonstrated it possesses all the necessary means, Russian Security Council Secretary Sergey Shoigu told reporters at a news conference at the 1st International Security Forum.
He also noted that there are no preconditions for the Russian base in Armenia to be dismantled.
TASS has compiled the key statements made by the Russian Security Council chief.
Interaction with Armenia
There are no preconditions for the Russian base in Armenia to be dismantled: "As for the Russian base, it is still active and functioning, and we do not yet see any reasons or threats that would prevent it from remaining where it is." The signing of the strategic partnership agreement between Armenia and the United States "looks more like an election campaign or assistance in an election campaign."
