Russia to adequately respond to U.S. MDS radar station deployment in Caucasus
02.03.2007 14:55 GMT+04:00
/PanARMENIAN.Net/ The possible deployment of American MDS (Missile
Defense System) radar station in the Caucasus will not harm Russia's
defensive capacity, Commander-in-Chief of Russian Air Forces Vladimir
Mikhaylov stated commenting on American MDA (Missile Defense Agency)
head Henry Obering's statement that `The U.S. would like to deploy a
radar station somewhere in Caucasus.'
`Let them deploy. After all, it's their problem. Unfortunately they
are speaking about deploying American MDS components in such countries
like Ukraine and a number of other countries, including the CIS
countries. Russia has everything necessary to adequately respond to
those deployments,' the General said.
In his opinion, Russian C-400 systems provide security, including in
the context of air- space defense. The Commander-in-Chief of Russian
Air Forces clarified that the range of C-400 zenith-missiles exceeds
400 kilometers and provides solutions for air-space defense tasks, RIA
`Novosti' reports.
