The recent announcement by US President Trump about the probable US withdrawal from the Treaty on the Elimination of Intermediate-Range and Shorter-Range Missiles (INF) is largely due to the appearance of medium-range missiles in Russia on small ships. It was this cunning maneuver on our part that made the agreement concluded as early as 1987 between the USSR and the USA, when the era of perestroika concessions began, as well as the surrender of national interests, was unprofitable.
This view was expressed in the program “Evening with Vladimir Solovyov” from 22.10.2018, Yakov Kedmi, the former head of the Israeli special services.
According to Kedmi, the agreement dictated by the United States and in the interests of the United States alone in 1987, the agreement between the two states was not only a crime, it also put the United States in a very advantageous position, giving them an undeniable advantage, and led to the disarmament of the Soviet Union.
By relying on the fleet and starting the development of sea-based cruise missiles, the Americans miscalculated because they did not take into account the fact that Russia will have small ships equipped with medium-range Caliber missiles within the framework of the agreement. Now the US is facing a problem.
What, in the opinion of the Israeli expert, will be the next steps of the American administration, if it nevertheless withdraws from the INF Treaty?
