Medvedev demands tank supplies and threatens consequences

“I point out that all contractors can be held accountable, including from criminal charges,” wrote Dmitry Medvedev, vice president of the safety Council of the Russian Federation on social media after visiting the Uralvagonzawod plants producing T-72B3 and T-90M tanks. The comment was “meticulous implementation of government defence contracts in all key parameters and prevention of disruptions in the supply of equipment”, with which the Russian manufacture is experiencing expanding problems.
