MOSCOW (Sputnik) — Russia's state defense procurement is still carried out at a high level and properly funded, Prime Minister Dmitry Medvedev said Thursday.
"The state defense procurement is executed at a high level, funded in prescribed amounts. It is a lot of money, so we have to ensure strict control over spending efficiency," Medvedev said at a government session.
He added that the government planned to introduce criminal liability for abuse of the defense procurement program.
