NATO Missile Sites, Russian Troops: The Cold War is Thawing at a Quickening Pace, But Who will Back Down First?

8

The Russians are now following the North Korean line, saying the expansion of NATO Missile Defence Shield capabilities is an “emerging threat” to its national security, and that U.S. claims that the most recent shield in Romania is to deflect Iran missiles, has been adamantly dismissed by President Vladimir Putin as a cover-up.

Putin was reported by the AFP as saying “Now that these anti-missile elements have been installed we will be forced to consider putting an end to the threats emerging in relation to Russia’s security,” suggesting NATO’s actions are a global threat to security.

Putin added “[Russia] will do everything needed to ensure and preserve the strategic balance, which is the most reliable guarantee from large-scale military conflicts.” However, Putin stated that he does not wish to get into an arms race.

Since President Obama was elected into the United States, Turkey has received a fully operational radar system operated under NATO command, and Romania, with her new U.S. missile defence site in Deveselu – as the second stage – has gone live this week.

Further missile sites under NATO are underway in Redzikowo, Poland and due to be finished in 2018, and further control centres will be established in Latvia, Estonia, Lithuania and Bulgaria by the end of this year. This move will see NATO active on the vast majority of the Russian-Baltic borders and Russian-Balkan borders stretching down to Serbia.

Romania’s President Klaus Iohannis went on record with CBS when he said he wanted NATO to have a “permanent naval presence [in the Black Sea].”

According to Putin, “They aren’t defensive systems, they are part of the U.S. strategic nuclear potential deployed on the periphery, in eastern Europe,” Putin said. “Now, after the deployment of those missile defense elements, we will have to think about how we can fend off the threats to the Russian Federation’s security.”

The BBC has also reported Russia as saying they will “neutralise threats,” reiterating Obama’s concerns for a “growing aggressive [Russian] military presence.”

Putin, however has also questioned why, when Iran was now supposedly secured, did the U.S. feel the need to continue NATO deployment of missile shields. Is this about Iran or about Russia?

Sweden, Denmark, Finland, Norway and Iceland have also declared their support for NATO bases, supporting the West’s presence in the Baltic-Nordic regions, too.

In a sickening slow-motion to what seems like pre-emptive manoeuvres before the real crisis commences; Russian deployments along its eastern flank will grow three-fold with new divisions by December 2016, shoring up its borders. Meanwhile, U.S. Defense Secretary Ashton Carter is hinting at an additional rotating four battalions of troops throughout eastern member states.

Reuters also reported a fortnight ago that Russia had “scrambled jets to intercept U.S. reconnaissance planes” and “simulated attack passes near a U.S. warship” stationed in the Baltic Sea. Russian Defence Minister Sergei Shoigu has stated Moscow will counter the NATO forces “growing capacity.”

Russian officials have also announced in January that five nuclear missile regiments would be brought into service, reported Reuters.

Be that you support the East or the West, or you prefer to remain neutral in it all, one has to mention the lurking white elephant in the room: at what temperature will this not-so-Cold War reach? The Cold War is thawing at a quickening pace, but who will back down first?

  1. The lunacy of this brinkmanship is threatening the survival of mankind! Our government is insane! This must stop now! For the sake of POWER and GREED you would risk NUCLEAR WAR?

  2. No Mr. LIBTARD!!!!

    All Russia needs to do is NOTHING!!!!! OR be in a world of shit trying to act stronger than it is!!!!! Bluffing will not work anymore??

    • Russia will not be broken, and if you think an invasion of NATO will not incur nuclear armageddon trust me, you are massively mistaken.

    • Russia will destroy the US. Their bombs are 4times stronger. And they’re not evil cunts so they have the universe on their side

  3. The stupid and arrogant western powers seem to forget what happens when you push an extremely dangerous animal into a corner

  4. “Romania’s President Klaus Iohannis went on record with CBS when he said he wanted NATO to have a “permanent naval presence [in the Black Sea].”

    They have, it’s called Turkey!

  5. Let us say that the World is going directly to the Apocalypse, Armagedon or whatever we want to call the end of the Mankind as we know it.

    Before we had just prophecies and the bible, etc… all of them poiting clearly to the end of the world… by that time I though it was only a kind of stupid especulations.. that would never become true..

    Now, suddenly, from the colpase of the URSS on the 90´s, that USA is preparing in fact this about to happen Apocalypse.. the Zionist Bankers under the Rothschild leadership, made a good job…

    So everything is almost in position… to launch the final attack against Russia to destroy it and afterwards China and then they will become the Lords of the Earth and Masters of Univers… and they will be happy forever.. in fact all tragedy looks more and more like an electronic game..

    USA AND NATO AND EU came to the NON RETURN POINT… there is no more space to revert this situation…

    It is just some more adjustments like to build up the new missile site in Poland… reinforce again and again NATO troops along the Russian borders…

    And that is it…. then.. NATO/ USA/ EU WILL LAUNCH THE FIRST SURPRISE NUCLEAR STRIKE AGAINST RUSSIA … THE POLITICAL AND MILITARY RUSSIAN HEADS WILL BE DESTROYED AS WELL AS ALL ITS MISSILE LAUNCHING SITES AND VECTORS… THE NATO TROOPS ON THE BORDERS WILL START THE RUSSIA INVASION… BOOTS ON THE GROUND AND IT WILL BE JUST LIKE A NICE WALK TROUGH RUSSIA TO DESTROY EVERYTHING… Vladimir Putin will be chased like Saddam and Gadaphy shot and hanged… and THE END, like a hollywood production..

    I am really sorry but it will not be that easy… likely Russiam will know in advance the time to launch the First Strike and will do it before in a preventive way… and it will go immediately global and nuclear… as far as it is known USA has no missile defenses against the SATAN 2 and some others… in 30 minutes part of USA will be radioactiv ashes… Romenia will be just smoke as well as Poland in 10 minutes … plus Germany… and then there will be retaliations from each side…

    At the end of the story USA will be almost totally destroyed… that is for sure… and EU the same… of course Russia will have serious damages…

    The North Hemysphere of Earth will be destroyed and impossible to live in… the remains of people who survive will have to go to Africa and South America…

    And it is the end of this New Atlantida… something else will re start from scraches..

    USA and the JEWS… THE ZIONIST BANKERS ARE THE ONLY ONES TO BLAME BY THE DESTRUCTION OF MANKIND TO HAPPEN LIKELY UP TO THE END OF 2016.
