without an agreement with the united states on missile defense and in the face of potential military threats russia was compelled to think of countermeasures. the country has declared in the past that it may withdraw from the strategic arms reduction treaty and said it will introduce measures to counter the missile defense shield. we will go ahead with the deployment of our missile defense system it is beyond me is that this presupposes deployment of its components in poland in romania in a radar station in turkey obviously this will also until the is there mission of a base in spain for american ships equipped with the ag system. it is obvious that the missile defense systems will be targeted at the russian federation rather than some mythical middle eastern countries possessing a virtual missile. at least fifteen countries around the world have been involved with the nato missile defense

8:41 pm
nato is radar with europe is to track the movements of russian strategic weapons and to monitor russia's new military technologies. the real target could be russia but certainly it makes the people of europe less safe it draws them in in fact as a geo strategic pawn by great powers as they maneuver and use the missile defense shield not as a way to defend your not as a way to defend anybody in fact but to provide a first strike potential capability against the adversary. this is how we are going to train ourselves in order to be ready for any situation . these people crossing a field of kelp have serious worries about the global situation.
