Guest Harry Hope Posted May 31, 2007 Posted May 31, 2007 From The Associated Press, 5/31/07: http://news.yahoo.com/s/afp/20070531/pl_afp/russiauspolitics_070531135109 Putin issues sharp warning to US, vows to counter 'imperialism' MOSCOW (AFP) - President Vladimir Putin issued an acerbic warning Friday to the United States, saying the recent test of a new Russian missile was a direct response to US actions and condemning "imperialism" in world affairs. "Our American partners have quit the ABM Treaty," Putin told reporters after meeting his Greek counterpart, referring to the landmark 1972 US-Soviet treaty limiting the missile defenses of the Cold War superpower foes. "We warned them then that we would come out with a response to maintain the strategic balance in the world. Yesterday we conducted a test of a new strategic ballistic missile with multiple warheads, and of a new cruise missile, and will continue to improve our resources." The United States informed Russia in 2001 that it was exercising its option to withdraw unilaterally from the Anti-Ballistic Missile (ABM) pact. It has since stepped up controversial plans, fiercely opposed by Russia, to deploy a missile defence shield in eastern Europe. Putin warned Wednesday that the US missile defense plan would turn Europe into a "powder keg" and he repeated on Thursday previous assertions that the planned deployments would ignite a new Cold War-style arms buildup. "We are not the initiators of this new round of the arms race," Putin said. ____________________________________________ Time to get the spoiled, insane, frat boy's finger off the nuclear button.

Has to do with talking to the other side, something you repugs never do. Rather than do the diplomatic thing and talk to Iran and Syria from day one, you idiots invaded Iraq. Hows that workin' out?
