Moscow, Feb 25 (UNI) Russian Foreign Minister Sergei Lavrov today said that US plans to create a missile shield in Eastern Europe are not understandable to Moscow.
"The US statement on its intention to deploy a missile shield in Eastern Europe is an example when a position, which has been expressed to us, as it seems, honestly and sincerely, turns out to be not quite understandable to us after a specific study," he said during an interview on Russian television channel TVTs.
He was referring to the US plans to build a radar installation in the Czech Republic and a missile base in Poland, in the next five years to counter possible attacks from "rogue regimes," including Iran and North Korea.
Mr said the hypothetical trajectory of missiles that could be launched from Iran and North Korea was different from the trajectory the US spoke about.
