MOSCOW/TASHKENT, May 11 (RIA Novosti) - The group of the defense ministry in Chechnya will not be reinforced, acting Russian Defense Minister Sergei Ivanov told journalists on board an aircraft on the way from Moscow to Tashkent.

"As for the group of the federal forces, its reinforcement is not planned. We believe that the composition and strength of the group of armed forces, interior troops and other power structures is sufficient as of today," Ivanov said.

"There's no necessity to reinforce this group," he said.

In his words, the federal forces are conducting systematic work to fulfill the tasks set to them: the interior troops are responsible for Chechnya's flat country, the defense ministry, for the mountains, and "acting together with units of Chechen security forces, they managed to achieve a number of results," said the acting minister.
