Putin orders military uniforms to be made from Russian fabrics

Starting in 2026, Russian military uniforms must be exclusively produced by Russian organizations within the country, with fabrics from Russian manufacturers by 2027. This directive was issued by Russian President Vladimir Putin to promote self-sufficiency and security in the armed forces. The goal is to ensure that the military uniforms are made using materials sourced domestically, enhancing the country’s defense capabilities. This move aims to reduce dependency on foreign suppliers and boost the local textile industry.
