    Lavrov: U.S. anti-missile shield in Europe aimed at restraining Russia
    26.12.2007 14:03 GMT+04:00

    /PanARMENIAN.Net/ Deployment of U.S. military facilities in Europe is
    meant for restraining Russia but not for liquidation of Iranian
    missiles, Russian Foreign Minister Sergei Lavrov said. `We possess
    serious data that the target is not Iran's hypothetic threats but
    restraint of Russia. The U.S. chooses one-sided measures neglecting
    our concerns,' he said.

    `Besides, shift of power in Iran can appear as an `incidental
    goal. What we want is to make sure that Iran's nuclear program is not
    for military purposes. Shift of power is not our objective. In this
    view, the U.S. attempts to change the regime will appear as
    inconsistent partnership,' the Minister said, Vremya Novostey reports.
