Angara System to Play Key Role in Providing Russia With Independent Access to Space- Putin
According to Kovalchuk, these developments should be promoted, while at the same time securing Russia's technological leadership.

"You need to know your worth and build relationships with partners correctly. For example, a thermonuclear project is successfully developing in China today. But we must remember that it began with Soviet installation tokamak [a thermonuclear fusion installation], which was installed there in the early 2000s. And then we designed a new generation Tokamak together, which is one of the best today," he explained.
