[REGNUM] The desire of the United States of America to develop a global missile defense system has led to serious security implications and triggered an arms race, including missiles. This was announced today, on May 3, in an interview with RIA Novosti by the official representative of the Russian Foreign Ministry, Maria Zakharova.
According to Zakharova, Russia has repeatedly drawn the attention of the United States to the fact that the unrestricted development of the United States' global missile defense system is very dangerous. However, the American side does not accept the Russian arguments in any way.
“At the same time, they reject the possibility of introducing any restrictions on their anti-missile activities and are deliberately increasing it, attracting more and more financial resources,” Zakharova said.
The representative of the Russian Foreign Ministry drew attention to the reports of the American media that the United States intends to allocate $ 18 billion for the project of creating and deploying promising missile interceptors that would replace strategic silo interceptor missiles.
Zakharova stressed that the building up of the American global missile defense potential leads to serious consequences in the field of security, as well as upsets the strategic balance of forces in the world and provokes an arms race, including missile ones.

...Shows how much they know about the way we do things here. $18B wouldn't pay for the silo cup holders.

You want to be at the mercy of the American ruling class? Well, neither do Russians.
So they're going to use Joe Biden, who they helped install, as an excuse to make war upon us and the Ukraine and all the free peoples in between Western Europe and Russia.
Just like Hitler said he was fighting The Bolsheviks, who the Germans had installed in Russia in the closing days of WW1, and who on their own had killed millions of people.

pps: the Wuhan virus has thus far killed 100,000 or so Russians, according to World of Meters, and Putin and his little city-vaporizers has done nothing but continue their alliance with its creators.

Putin's has no "alliance" with China. They're enemies, always have been. They've gone to war in my lifetime. China wants to take over half of Russia

I wish I well as well informed and intelligent like you, Thing as the rest of you all. I don't always agree (hell, hardly ever totally agree) but there are a lot who are worth reading. Annoying? Often. Worth reading? Yes.
