Vasily Zatsepin and Vitaly Tsymbal

Published Papers from Gaidar Institute for Economic Policy

Abstract: The year 2006 was more successful as regards the achievements in the defense sphere than the preceding years, notwithstanding certain setbacks that occurred in implementing military reform, solving the social problems of the military and equipping the armed forces with modern weapons, which will be dwelt upon later in this paper. The RF President had every reason to positively characterize the level of the State’s level of security and the efforts of the RF military establishment aimed at maintaining this level. Such an assessment was given by him at a conference held at the Ministry of Defense in November 2006. Judging from what one could find in the mass media, this opinion was shared by the majority of experts.
