US Returns Cruise Missiles to Germany Amid Rising Tensions with Russia
ai generated text
The recent developments in international relations have sparked concerns over the potential deployment of longer-range missiles by the US and NATO. The Tomahawk cruise, SM-6, and hypersonic missiles have a significantly longer range than existing missiles, which would have been banned under the 1988 treaty between the US and former Soviet Union. Russian Deputy Foreign Minister Sergei Ryabkov has accused NATO and the US of trying to intimidate Russia. A Kremlin spokesman stated that stationing these missiles could lead to a Cold War-style direct confrontation. German Chancellor Olaf Scholz welcomed the plan, viewing it as a deterrent and means to secure peace.
All the attributes of the Cold War with the direct confrontation are returning.
This is just a link in the chain of a course of escalation.
We have strong wording regarding the irreversibility of Ukraine's movement towards NATO. Every step truly brings us closer to membership.
Exercising these advanced capabilities will demonstrate the United States' commitment to NATO and its contributions to European integrated deterrence.
