KRASNAYA POLYANA, February 18 (Itar-Tass) -- Russian President Dmitry Medvedev has appointed the permanent representative of Russia to NATO, Dmitry Rogozin, as his special envoy for cooperation with NATO on missile defense issues. "I would like to inform you that I have signed a decree appointing Dmitry Rogozin a special presidential envoy for cooperation with NATO on missile defense matters," Medvedev said on Friday, as he opened a meeting with members of the Russian Security Council.
"The question of a European missile defense is crucial to security in the Euro-Atlantic region," said the Russian president. "We agreed to work with NATO on this issue, so we are here to take all the necessary steps to ensure our ultimate choice should be optimal for the security of our country," he added.
Medvedev said that the issue on the agenda was "defining the configuration of a missile defense, and the possibility of distributing responsibilities among the participants in this process, if we, of course, manage to agree with our partners."
"The special envoy has all the necessary powers, and he is commissioned to establish an appropriate working group to address this problem," said Medvedev. Source: Itar-Tass Êîììåíòàðèè |
