He emphasized that we can not but develop nonstop super powerful weapon systems to remove the potential and direct threats to the security of our country that exist in the south.

Giving the leading officials in the field of the munitions industry and national defence science the direction of researches into important strategic and tactical weapon systems for continued development, he set forth methodological issues for further consolidating the nation's capabilities for self-defence.
