Russia will "always respond" to the challenges of a new "arms race" and is developing more high-tech weapons, President Vladmir Putin said Friday in a televised address.

"There is a new turn in the arms race," Putin said.

"Russia will always respond to this new challenge," he said, promising "new weapons that have the same characteristics, and in some cases better characteristics, as those being built by other countries."
