Russian-US military-technical cooperation insufficient - Putin

MOSCOW. Oct 13 (Interfax) - Russian President Vladimir Putin considers Russian-U.S. cooperation in the struggle against ISIL only at the military-technical level insufficient.

"Unfortunately […] the work [of Russian and American experts] is being conducted only at the level of the defense agencies, and only in military-technical issues, up to the comparison of the friend-foe systems onboard our aircraft, that is already a major sign of trust as it is, this is already not bad. There are also other military-technical parameters on which the military agreed," Putin said in reply to the questions at the 'Russia Calling' VTB Capital forum.

"But I believe that this is insufficient," the president said.
