Russian press agencies quoted defense officials as saying that the Russian army launched a Topol intercontinental ballistic missile from its northern test site Plesetsk and several shorter-range missiles from submarines of the Northern and Pacific fleets. The Presidents of Belarus, Armenia, Tajikistan, and Kyrgyzstan attended the event. Putin said the military exercises had long been planned and are not related to political developments in eastern Ukraine.
