MOSCOW, May 5 (RIA Novosti) - The US inspections of Russian nuclear facilities have not been and are not coming under consideration, said a high-level Defense Ministry official.
Colonel-General Igor Valynkin is the head of the 12th department of the Defense Ministry in charge of nuclear transportation and storage.
Colonel-General Nikolai Solovtsov, the commander of the Strategic Missile Force (SMF), earlier told reporters that Russia would not let other countries to SMF facilities.
"In terms of control over nuclear ammunition and storages, our position is that we do not provide access to them. I think it is not likely to happen in the near future," said Solovtsov.
According to him, Russia and the US have long been applying mutual control mostly in missile force operation.
