Medvedev announced the inadmissibility of the free carrying of weapons in Russia

Medvedev: Russia should not allow free circulation of firearms

In Russia, unlike the United States, traditions of free carrying of firearms are unacceptable, said Deputy Chairman of the Russian Security Council Dmitry Medvedev, reports TASS.

According to the deputy head of the Security Council, the Americans are “proud of their right to bear arms”, it has been in their blood since known times. In Russia, such traditions are unacceptable, he said.

“In my opinion, the free circulation of such weapons in our country should not be allowed under any circumstances. It’s just dangerous,” Medvedev said.

The Deputy Chairman of the Security Council also noted that in the United States the number of crimes involving the use of firearms is “much more than in Russia and in many other countries.”
