Putin says Russia needs stronger defense against Afghan threats
         
President Vladimir Putin said on Wednesday Russia must strengthen the defense of its southern borders and work with Central Asian allies to protect itself against the threat of extremist violence emerging from Afghanistan.         

Putin told a meeting of his Security Council that U.S. and NATO-led forces "have not yet achieved a breakthrough in the fight against terrorist and radical groups" in Afghanistan and that these groups have become more active recently.
