Missile Warning's To United States

"I can't exclude that if such decisions are taken by our military-political leadership, the missile shield in Poland and the Czech Republic and other such objects could be chosen as designated targets for some of our inter-continental ballistic missiles," General Nikolai Solovtsov was quoted by Interfax as saying. Russia's threat comes after the US-Russian relations slumped to a post-Cold War low over the recent Georgian conflict. Some analysts view the conflict as a prelude to another cold war. "We should be sure that the current and future strategic missile forces... are guaranteed to fulfill the task of strategic deterrence," said Solovtsov, the head of Russia's strategic missile forces. Moscow has been at loggerheads with Washington over the US defense missile system in Europe, dismissing the plan as a jeopardy to its security and military power. Poland and the United States signed a deal in August on building the site for 10 US missile interceptors on the Baltic Sea by 2012. AO/BGH |
