ASHULUK airfield (Astrakhan region), August 30 (RIA Novosti) - Russian Defense Minister Sergei Ivanov said the creation of a single European anti-missile defense system was possible.

"It is possible in principle," Ivanov said. "Russia has proposed establishing a non-strategic ABM system in Europe," he said after a CIS air defense exercise in the south of Russia.

Ivanov also said Russia could make a serious contribution to the European air defense system.

"Russia will sufficiently contribute to this system, including using the weapons that were shown today at Ashuluk," the minister said.
