Putin proposes missile duel with US to test Russia's Oreshnik

In response to a question about a new hypersonic ballistic missile that Russia used for the first time last month to strike Ukraine, President Vladimir Putin mockingly challenged the US and its Western allies to a "high-tech duel of the XXI century."
