The complete and self-sufficient universal troops will be created on the Crimean peninsula, announced Minister of Defense of Russia Sergey Shoygu.

“The analysis of possible development of the events necessitates the maintenance of the Southern Military District troops in readiness to ensure the military security of the country and its allies in the south-western strategic direction. Under these conditions one of the priority purposes is the creation of the complete and self-sufficient universal troops on the Crimean peninsula,” said the minister.

In particular, the Aviation Division of the fourth Air and Air Defense Forces Command of Russia, with units located in Crimean Belbek, is being created, informed the General Staff of the Armed Forces of Russia.
