Zakharov: in connection with the deployment of the European missile defense system, Russia has the right to retaliate

66
Moscow can respond to military-technical measures in connection with the deployment of a US missile defense system in Europe, reports RIA News statement by the representative of the Ministry of Foreign Affairs of the Russian Federation Maria Zakharova.



Earlier, Viktor Ozerov, head of the defense committee of the Federation Council, said that he did not exclude the withdrawal of the RF from the START-3 treaty in response to the continued deployment of the US missile defense system in Europe.

To the journalist's question, “Does Russia plan to withdraw from the START-3 Treaty in connection with the launch of the US missile defense base in Romania,” Zakharova replied:
“Considering that this was and remains not our choice, then, of course, we reserve the adoption of appropriate military-technical responses.”


“Russia has repeatedly pointed out the risks to international security that are created by the unilateral and unlimited deployment of US missile defense facilities in Europe. We were ready for close cooperation, up to the creation in Europe together with NATO of an anti-missile architecture, which would be built according to the principle of sectors, ”she stressed.

Earlier, NATO Secretary General Stoltenberg said: "We do not intend to intercept Russian missiles either in Romania or in Poland."

        Who cares? We’ll put the Iskanders and call them anti-aircraft missile defense systems .. And most importantly, we won’t lie! If you pull the Iskanders and destroy the launchers of nuclear weapons then nothing will fly to Russia because there is nothing! So everything is true ABM and no other way! On the part of the United States, the ship’s UPJ established exactly the same rhetoric and do not blow into the mustache .. So there are no contradictions in missile defense in Cuba, Nicaragua, Venezuela .. There is really one and most important nuance that fundamentally changes everything, the leadership of Cuba and other potential the locations of our missile defense systems live in these countries and are not going to blame from there if something happens (or the end of their powers), and therefore they understand very well that they are turning themselves and their countries into targets № 1 in which case with zero chances of survival .. Therefore, the question of placing our missile defense there is practically impossible! but in all sorts of romania, poland, ruins, it’s easy for the managers who appointed the United States to spit on these geographic entities and that they don’t care much with them .. That’s the whole difference in the approach of the USA and Russia to missile defense ..

    Even Khrushchev told America that in the USSR the economy should be economical and pointed his finger at one point on the map. The Americans carefully wiped the map, looked at it and said, "Why did the forest not please you?" Khrushchev pointed his finger again, called for forestry specialists, those other specialists, those who still brought people with them.
    "Well, a volcano, well, a supervolcano, so what?"
    "Well, watch the seismographs," Khrushchev vaguely promised and left.

    Or are we, so quietly quiet, they already understand!

      A violation of the INF Treaty is not the deployment of Euro missile defense, but the installation of MK41 launchers on the ground, from which it is possible to launch not only cm-3, but also Tomahawks.
      And Zakharova is not the first, Lavrov has spoken about this more than once: "... besides, the Treaty directly forbids the anti-missile launchers, which will soon be deployed in Romania and Poland." (http://www.interfax.ru/world/422541)

    In connection with the threat to the life of Russian citizens, it is necessary to deploy not only air defense and electronic warfare equipment, but also missiles with nuclear warheads in constant combat readiness. In order to be able to reliably suppress any missile launch from a given direction in the shortest possible time. And directly declare that any launch from this base could entail a massive nuclear strike at these facilities, so that the gentlemen who sold their countries knew what they were risking.

      Yes, no one asked people from these countries. Their power is abstracted - they took and accepted the NATO base buildings. Even if they change their minds = the United States, there isn’t enough forces to drive out.

    Earlier, NATO Secretary General Stoltenberg said: "We do not intend to intercept Russian missiles either in Romania or in Poland."
    Yes, yes, we also do not intend to make the Stalin Strait.

    The Iskanders will not reach the base in Bulgaria and Romania, it is necessary to make missiles with a greater range.

    Earlier, NATO Secretary General Stoltenberg said: "We do not intend to intercept Russian missiles either in Romania or in Poland."

    And for the market to answer?
    Or maybe we should check such statements?
    Accidentally hit a training (completely inert warhead) on the points of deployment of missile defense in Poland and Romania, and at the same time on airfields in the Baltic States.
    Saying for 10 minutes before landing, the warheads are completely inert (with sand). Schaub's staff went into hiding.
    Do not intercept - believe.
    But all they know will be that the next time and not inert will arrive.
    And they and us teachings.
    Self-training and PCB them for three days with washing underpants (sorry) tolerant panty liners.
    With the subsequent issuance of double diapers with HH.
    Please forgive my soldiers' humor! soldier

    "Moscow can go" ... Or maybe not? Maybe we’ll go to bed?
    Silently and immediately yesterday to withdraw from all contracts that are not beneficial to us!
    It is necessary to react in such a way that their eyes go to their foreheads and become obsessed with themselves! And do not idle.

    Families living in 3 generations in an apartment (shopping mall is not being built), shops on cards, issuance of salaries - products, etc. etc. Well, everything is like the 80s in the USSR


    In the 80s, this was not the case in the USSR. Housing was under construction. My family has improved their housing situation three times. Salaries were paid in cash. It was in the late 80s there was nothing to buy for money, only with coupons.

    Let these clowns build anything, in which case all this will be destroyed in the first place. I can guess in the first half hour. And the missiles themselves, what is the use of them if there is no tracking and guidance system. All of this is already crammed into the goal database.
