"Russia Warns Of Nuke Reply To US Global Strike Programme"

MOSCOW, December 11 (RIA Novosti) – A senior government minister warned Wednesday that Russia could retaliate with a nuclear strike if a new US military strategy threatened its security.

Deputy Prime Minister Dmitry Rogozin said that Russia was “preparing a response” to plans by the United States to develop a new fast-strike weapons platform capable of hitting high-priority targets around the globe.

He told the State Duma that the development of a global strike program was “the most important new strategy being developed by the United States today.”

“They may experiment with conventional weapons on strategic delivery platforms, but they must bear in mind, that if we are attacked, in certain circumstances we will of course respond with nuclear weapons,” Rogozin said.

Well, basically they are saying - touch us with your fancy new weapon and we will punch your lights out. What else would they say?

He simply restated nuclear doctrine to anyone foolish enough to think it had disappeared - sadly, most today don't realize that those missiles are still waiting, still targeted and probably will be used someday. That kind of puff and bluster might be directed at a teen who scored the keys to his dad's new sports car - warning him of dire consequences if he drives too fast - kinda like the situation America finds itself in with Oby the wonderkind.
