US missile defense allows you to deliver a sudden nuclear blow to Russia. According to RIA Novosti, this was stated by the first deputy chief of the Russian General Staff, Lieutenant General Viktor Poznikhir. The bases of the American Pro in Europe and the missiles located near the borders of Russia "create a powerful hidden component" for such a blow, Poznichir said.
According to him, building the potential about the United States violates strategic parity and stimulates the arms race. According to the calculations of the Russian side, by 2022 there will be more American anti -throats than combat units deployed on the intercontinental ballistic missiles of Russia.
According to Poznikhir, so many fire funds about the Russian potential for restraining a “serious threat”, especially since Washington constantly modernizes the fire complexes of the anti -ray.
Poznikhir said that in Washington they exaggerate the nuclear threat from the DPRK and Iran, which "have a maximum of a dozen medium -range ballistic missiles." In fact, the main goals of the American Pro is Russia and China, the general is sure. "Arguments (American side. - Ed.) Are not perceived, obvious facts are ignored. The United States declare the non -focus of the missile system against Russia and China. However, the results of computer modeling indicate the opposite," Poznikhir added.
On March 23, President Vladimir Putin said that Russian strategic nuclear forces will be “priority” to be equipped with new weapons . In November last year, he stated that Russia could aim its missiles on NATO objects, if it considers that they threaten its safety.
