It does not comes as a surprise the comments produced by Russian Strategic Missile Forces Commander Col. Gen. Nikolai Solovtsov. The comments came in response to the American Plans to deploy U.S Missiles in Poland and Checz republic. This appears like a resumption of Cold War antics by the two countries. The comments of Russian Strategic Missile Forces Commander Col. Gen. Nikolai Solovtsov is given beneath:

MOSCOW: Russia may target its missiles against Poland and the Czech republic if the U.S. sets up its missile defense shield planned in the two East European countries.

“If the Polish and Czech governments approve the determination [to deploy U.S. anti-missiles] our strategic missile forces will be ready to target these missile web sites,” stated Russian Strategic Missile Forces Commander Col. Gen. Nikolai Solovtsov stated.

The commander told a press conference on Monday that Russia could rapidly resume production of medium assortment missiles if Moscow made the decision to walk out of a Soviet-era treaty with the U.S.

banning their deployment.

Russian General Staff Chief Col. Gen. Yuri Balyevsky stated at the weekend that Moscow would pull out of the treaty is the U.S. went ahead with the deployment of missile defenses in Europe.

“Asymmetric response”

The Russian missile forces chief also stated Russia would construct “missiles with an alterable hypersonic motion vector” in the near future as aspect of an “asymmetric response” to the stationing of U.S. anti-missile methods in Europe.

He said Russia was engaged in talks with the U.S. to prevent the building of an American missile shield close to Russian borders.

The Polish and Czech Prime Ministers have supported the deployment of U.S.

missiles, whilst German Foreign Minister Frank-Walter Steinmeier urged caution and consultations with Russia.

Russia has rejected U.S. assurances that the missiles were required to safeguard Europe from Iranian and North Korean missiles, and said their deployment would threaten Russian security.

The argument created by US does not have significantly merit as North Korea or Iran do not have missiles that will reach US. So have to admit that the complete exercising is getting accomplished to nullify the hold of Russia in the territory. Russia with a quite rapidly building financial system, thanks to a quite large oil cost(Once more they have to thank US for IRAQ war for this) is acquiring back to a thing of a cold war stature.

The entire crisis is occurring from the US’s refusal to work with a stronger Russia. Everyone may inquire what’s there in this for Poland and Checz Republic, the reward may be a greater pay package from US and a foothold against the Old Europe. Throughout the create up to Iraq war we have seen the variations arising amongst old Europe and new Europe. Its been very unfortunate that two nations that was devastated by 2nd globe war supporting war for the material benefits from US, rather than as a matter of policy. For the US, its a double kill tactic- via which US can give robust signals to Russia and Old Europe(specifically with their opposition to the IRAQ war).

But if the warning from Russian commander is somewhat correct, then Poland and Checz Republic need to recognize against a Russian onslaught they have no alternative. But this is just a warning not a strategy of actions. Its rather clear US will go ahead with Missile deployment in Poland and Checz Republic. Russians in the future may possibly resume the production of medium assortment missiles. With Venezuelan President Hugo Chavez going to be there for sometime, Russian’s can even believe about a deployment of nuclear missiles in Venezuela. We may possibly see a start of Missile crisis of Cuban way all above the globe. Amidst all this the world will be a quite fascinating place to reside, supplied the planet still stays.
