Western expert revealed the ability of PU MK-41 US to strike missiles
Speaking at a hearing in the European Parliament on the situation following the collapse of the INF Treaty, non-proliferation expert Bruno Lete said that anti-missile defense missile launchers located in Romania are easily remade to carry out offensive functions.
he said, adding that the United States intends to deploy medium-range missiles to protect its allies in Asia from China and the DPRK.
Earlier it was reported that two weeks after leaving the INF Treaty, the United States tested a new missile from a ground installation similar to the MK-41 launchers deployed in Romania. At the same time, the United States rejected the accusations of Russia, saying that the tests were carried out with a completely different setup, and that the MK-41 have purely defensive functions.
Recall that earlier, Russian President Vladimir Putin proposed that NATO member countries introduce a moratorium on the deployment of intermediate and shorter-range missiles instead of the INF Treaty that has ceased operations. However, NATO rejected the proposal, accusing Russia of deploying ground-based installations of SSC-8 missile systems on Russian territory.
