elements of American missile shield in Europe would be installed for the future system of defense of NATO airstrikes - have settled in Brussels the heads of diplomats from member countries.
L 'Alliance has agreed to sign the agreements for the installation of the elements of American air defense system by Poland and the Czech Republic radar station near Prague, and the battery of Patriot missiles (96) deployed to Redzików (near Slupsk in northern Poland) "will be part of the system of 'Atlantic alliance", as confirmed by the Polish Foreign Minister Radoslaw Sikorski during the closing press conference of the work.
shield Concerns have emerged strongly in the last month, especially after the words of Nicolas Sarkozy, expressed at the 'meeting with Dmitry Medvedev. According to the French President, the installation of the shield would add nothing to Western security, indeed, would have worsened the situation. It was a real surprise, because in May the same Sarkozy declared himself in favor of the project. Now, the tenant of the Elysée seems to have changed his mind again, saying that the shield will be an American defense of Western countries from the threat iraniana.Il weblog NATO defense system does not have a definitive structure. It will be revealed only in March at the summit of foreign ministers of the Alliance to be held in Krakow. In May, it was then the Assembly of Heads of State and Government in having to discuss and ratify. Only thing known is, precisely, the inclusion of the U.S. missile shield plan in the future Atlantic.
"Russia can not threaten us with missiles in Kaliningrad"
Still on the missile defense system, we tackled the issue of the relationship with Moscow. - We call on Russia to make a direct comparison, peaceful and civil, and avoid extending their sphere of influence and threaten the security of sovereign countries members of the Alliance with the deployment of Iskander missiles in the enclave of Kaliningrad - reads the statement dismissed by Brussels by NATO heads of diplomacy of states.
In it, the ministers also stressed the use of force in Georgia in Moscow last August has been "disproportionate", ergo relations with the Russian Federation will no longer be addressed as "business as usual". However, a collaboration with the Kremlin has been reinvigorated after the break due to the recent military aggression against Tbilisi. Consequently, the entry of Ukraine and Georgia in NATO was unfortunately delayed. The legitimate ambition - and hope - in Kyiv and Tbilisi a Membership in NATO is not, however, entirely precluded.
"By May of Albania and Croatia will be members of the Alliance"
The NATO foreign ministers also announced that by May Albania and Croatia will be members of the Alliance. The two countries have been invited already at the summit in Bucharest last May. They will join the Macedonia: the heads of diplomacy of NATO countries called for a quick resolution of disputes (linked to the name of the Balkan state) with Greece, a sine qua non for entry into the family Skopije Atlantic.
