In Russia, commented on the possible U.S. withdrawal from the INF Treaty

Russia is outraged by the position of congressmen on missiles.

Possible withdrawal of the United States of America from the Treaty on the elimination of intermediate and shorter-range missiles (INF Treaty) may lead to a new arms race.

“If withdrawal from the Treaty will occur and will lead to the build-up of arms, a new missile deployment in Europe, we turn a blind eye to it is not will going to retaliate,” – said Ozerov.

According to him, Washington has no grounds to accuse Russia of failure to comply with the INF Treaty. “Russia has fulfilled all its obligations for the destruction of intermediate range, they were destroyed by cutting under the control of the American side. Moreover, Russia had destroyed thousands of missiles, more than the United States,” – said the head of the Committee.

Ozerov believes that the proposal of the Congress can only be viewed as “an attempt to continue the anti-Russian hysteria”.
