Russia warns US over missile system
Tuesday 17 October 2006, 20:44


Russia has criticised the proposed deployment in Europe of a United States missile defence system near its borders.

Poland and the Czech Republic are being considered for the European base of a US anti-missile shield, although opposition to the plan is rising in both countries.

The US is also considering basing interceptor missiles and radar in Bulgaria, Hungary and Turkey.
...
Yevgeny Buzhinsky, the head of the Russian defence ministry's international military co-operation department, urged the US and its allies to refrain from unilateral action and negotiate with Moscow.
...
"The deployment of missile defence near the Russian borders could pose a real threat to our deterrent forces," Buzhinsky said in the article.

"We would view that as an unfriendly gesture on behalf of the United States, some eastern European nations and Nato as a whole. Such actions would require taking adequate retaliatory measures of military and political character," Buzhinsky said.
