Ask Putin!
Killing one person is murder, killing 100,000 is foreign policy
No I'm asking you as you seem to want to speak on his behalf most of the time ?
He said that if they joint the defense shield which is their right as a sovereign nation they will be targeted with nuclear weapons, nothing else was stated, that's what he said and no amount of your payed for by Kremlin propaganda is going to change that, end of.
No threatening to target another nation with nuclear weapons is a threat.
Well I'm not far away from a 50 cal so let's hope the genocidal war criminal Adolf Putler makes a visit to the UN real soon.And with your level of hysteria and Russian phobia, thank god you're far away from policy makers, Jesus Christ!
It's not "we will attack if you do this." Im sure you know that, though, unlike some others in the thread.
I hope you enjoyed your stay.
Whether we like it or not, whether we accept it or not, Russia views this type of NATO extension as threatening to their national security. Russia offered a compromise deal of shared monitoring of the Bush era planned MDS for Poland in 2007. Of course the Bush administration rejected that, furthering Russian suspicions. Russia then threatened to install nuclear missiles along its border if the plan went forward. Thankfully Obama scraped the plan.
On November 5, 2008, in his first State of the Nation speech, Russian President Dmitry Medvedev stated, "From what we have seen in recent years — the creation of a missile defense system, the encirclement of Russia with military bases, the relentless expansion of NATO — we have gotten the clear impression that they are testing our strength."
As a side note, Russia, China, Germany and France have all expressed that a uni-polar world is a threat to global security and are working to change that.

Lol, you really don't have a clue. Get your 50 cal and change the world buddy. What a joke.

Listen, "target," in this context could be described as "aim at," not "fire at." Like the United States has of Russia, Russia has a list of western targets to be destroyed in the event that nuclear war breaks out. They would add these missile defense systems to such a list.
Russia is not saying "we will attack if you join this missile shield." Russia is saying "this will make your missile shield a target for nukes if we go to war."
I hope this clears up your confusion. On your next forum, I suggest you refrain from threatening world leaders with assassination.
How do you threaten Russia by drawing down your forces in the region and installing a defensive system ?
How can NATO test Russias strength by greatly reducing its forces facing it ?On November 5, 2008, in his first State of the Nation speech, Russian President Dmitry Medvedev stated, "From what we have seen in recent years — the creation of a missile defense system, the encirclement of Russia with military bases, the relentless expansion of NATO — we have gotten the clear impression that they are testing our strength."
US forces in Europe number around 15% of what they were 25 years ago so how is this threatening Russias interests ?As a side note, Russia, China, Germany and France have all expressed that a uni-polar world is a threat to global security and are working to change that.
