Import substitution plans
Plans to replace
imports from NATO countries will be presented to President Vladimir Putin at
the next meeting of the state military-industrial commission, Deputy Defense
Minister Yury Borisov told reporters on Tuesday.
Work was complete on developing import substitution
plans though replacing equipment sourced from the western military alliance,
notably electronic components, might be more difficult than turning away from
Ukrainian products, Borisov said.
Substitution policy was not uncommon in globalization
conditions in which most countries used imported parts, he added, citing United
States' purchase of up to 60% of electronic components from south-east Asia.
The Russian Defense Ministry is ready to face
difficulties in connection with the use of imported parts to fulfill state
orders, the deputy defense minister said.
