Russian President Vladimir Putin announced a new strategic nuclear training exercise on Tuesday, saying that top officials would review the control of nuclear ballistic and cruise missile launches.
"Today we are conducting another exercise of strategic deterrence forces," Putin was shown saying in a video clip released by the Kremlin.

Putin said Russia would not take part in any arms race but that Moscow needed to have its nuclear forces ready for use.
