    MOSCOW OFFERS U.S. TO INSTALL RADAR IN TURKEY

    /PanARMENIAN.Net/ Installation of U.S. anti-missile assets in Turkey
    but not in Eastern Europe will alleviate Moscow's concerns about
    U.S. plans, said Yuri Baluyevsky, chief of the Russian Army General
    Staff.

    "Iran can develop long-range ballistic missiles no sooner then 2015. So
    why not install assets for their prevention in Turkey?" Baluyevsky
    said.

    U.S. refusal from joint use of the Gabala radar station in Azerbaijan
    will reveal the genuine aims of deployment of missile defense shield
    in Europe, he added.

    "The world will understand the motives. The gander allegedly coming
    from Iran is hypothetical while the U.S. offers to create a major
    missile defense shield, which is unnecessary," Baluyevsky said,
    the BBC Russian branch reports.

    The proposal on joint use of Gabala radar station in Azerbaijan as an
    alternative to installation of anti-missile assets in Eastern Europe
    came from Russian President Vladimir Putin during the G8 summit.
