Riot Act: Russian Arms-makers Threatened With Up To Ten Years In Jail by adamusuleiman3: 5:24am On Jan 14, 2023
This week ex-president Dmitry Medvedev, seen as a Putin lackey, read the riot act to Russian arms-makers this week, threatening them with up to ten years in jail if they failed to provide more frontline firepower with tanks and armoured vehicles.

Security council deputy chairman Medvedev - a former Russian president - issued the threat as he inspected the 61st Armoured Vehicle Repair Plant in St Petersburg.

The tasks here are obvious, and they need to be promptly addressed, in no way allowing for the disruption of approved deadlines,” said Medvedev, reading from a prepared script. He blasted failures to supply military equipment on time.

He said: "In the case of repeat violations, let me remind you that special criminal punishment has been introduced [under] the Russian criminal code.

“These are the new norms, and they have not yet been applied.

“But we must understand that if necessary, we will be forced to apply them
.”

Putin has put Medvedev in charge of speeding up arms supplies, but his last attempt - shouting at the boss of Russia’s biggest tank plant in October - has failed to yield the required results.
