Admiral Gromov confirmed the severe reductions planned for the Russian Navy. Over the last five years, the Navy has been reduced from 452,000 men to 227,000. By the end of 1998, an additional 30,000 will be retired. The admiral claimed that the Pacific Fleet will not be dissolved in the near future, but confirmed that the fleet is to be based in two main locations – Kamchatka and Primorsk.
