RUSSIA UPGRADES NUKE MISSILES

WHY?



Russia says it is deploying a mobile version of its most important long-range nuclear missile.

Defence Minister Sergei Ivanov said the new Topol-M missiles would be able to penetrate a multi-layered missile defence system.



Is this necessary?

OK, with that said, what are the chances that they would use these as a policy maker?

Once again I must agree with Bug--this Bear is not hiberating for long, it still has desires to be that power it use to be.

Russia becomes concern over US missiles

n Friday harshly criticized US plans to build missile defense sites in central Europe, shrugging off US assurances that the installations would be meant to deal with a potential threat from Iran and calling them an effort to strengthen America's military might in the region.

A statement from Foreign Ministry spokesman Mikhail Kamynin provided a detailed account of Russia's opposition to US proposals to establish elements of its missile defense system in Poland and the Czech Republic - former Soviet satellites that are now NATO members

Well we should try to find some way to make them happy. Some minor concession to give them. Or maybe just let them bitch and moan and accept that this is all part of "poltics" which can often just be a game of pandering to the public.

It's not unreasonable for the US to install missile intercept sites around Iran. Iran has shown that they cannot be trusted. They put that moron Ahmadinejad as President. Europe should definetely not trust their lives in his hands.
