Russia: Puts Radar Station On Combat Alert
 

Dmitry Medvedev

(7 minutes in to the video below)


"- First, I am instructing the Defense Ministry to immediately put the missile attack early warning radar station in Kaliningrad on combat alert.

-Second, protective cover of Russia's strategic nuclear weapons, will be reinforced as a priority measure under the programme to develop out air and space defenses.

- Third, the new strategic ballistic missiles commissioned by the Strategic Missile Forces and the Navy will be equipped with advanced missile defense penetration systems and new highly-effective warheads.

- Fourth, I have instructed the Armed Forces to draw up measures for disabling missile defense system data and guidance systems if need be...

- Fifth, if the above measures prove insufficient, the Russian Federation will deploy modern offensive weapon systems in the west and south of the country, ensuring our ability to take out any part of the US missile defense system, in Europe. One step in this process will be to deploy Iskander missiles in Kaliningrad Region."

His latest statements are widely seen as a way to please the domestic audience ahead of December 4 parliamentary polls and the March 2012 presidential vote, which are expected to steer Putin back to the Kremlin and secure Medvedev the post of prime minister by agreement between the two men.

Guess Medvedev is feeling like a big man.
2 words; Fuck you!

he will just seat down and look at US missiles across Europe same as US looked at those at Cuba :)

Next, the Russian webmasters will mobilize.

Wonder if they'll fall for the Star Wars SDI trick again. Seriously though I've heard that culturally they tends to talk big, but back down when confronted. Example being that Soviet leaders have said the west could have knocked down the Berlin wall at any time and they wouldn't have done anything about it. It'll be interesting to see how the world responds.

ahh americans

back to turkey! i am sure everyone can do simple math.. their missiles, which we can't deal with and will sink carrier groups.. cost thousands per

ours? millions

business as usual ...

Who cares what they do.
