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.
