Moscow will not enter new arms race with US

So we win then?

Russia's foreign minister Tuesday reaffirmed Moscow's concern over U.S. plans to deploy missile defense sites in Europe, saying Russia would respond but would not enter a new arms race.

Now we're having problems with Russia. I wonder what it takes to become a Canadian citizen?

Poland and the Czech Republic both indicated Monday that they were ready to move forward with plans by Washington under which the U.S. would put 10 interceptor missiles in Poland and a radar in the Czech Republic.

Alright, I'm starting to see why the world hates us.

"Russia will respond to emerging threats to its national security in a carefully weighed, adequate way, and won't allow anyone to draw it into a new confrontation, a new arms race," Russia's Foreign Minister Sergey Lavrov said Tuesday in a speech at a Moscow university.

What does that mean exactly?

Poland and the Czech Republic have been warned that they risk becoming Russian military targets if they go ahead with plans to host bases for a US missile defence shield.

That's the carefully weighed, adequate response?
Russia's President Vladimir Putin has said he does not trust American claims that the move is aimed at countering a missile threat from Iran and pledged countermeasures.

And when has America ever been untrustworthy, aside from that whole thing with the Native Americans, and every other thing we do? You know what, just bomb us.
At a conference in Munich earlier this month, he criticized U.S. foreign policy, accusing Washington of uncontained use of force worldwide and of triggering a global arms race in angry comments that shocked Western governments.

Yeah, well...you're ugly. Hah, zing!
