Russian general says missiles could target US shield: report
MOSCOW (AFP) — The commander of Russia's strategic missile forces said Monday that he would not rule out aiming intercontinental missiles at a planned US missile-defence shield in central Europe, Interfax reported.
If the US shield is seen to threaten Russia's nuclear capability, "I do not exclude ... the missile defence shield sites in Poland and the Czech Republic being chosen as targets for some of our intercontinental ballistic missiles," General Nikolai Solovtsov was quoted as saying by the news agency.
