Russia denies Iran is a threat and orders United States to drop missile shield plan

Russia has ordered the United States to drop its missile shield proposals after claiming that Iran's recent military exercises proved that Tehran did not have the firepower to attack Europe.

Escalating a war of words with Washington, Sergei Lavrov, the Russian foreign minister, said that this week's Iranian missile tests had provided further evidence of an American plot to neuter Moscow's nuclear deterrent.

Russia: Iran’s Rockets Show U.S. Anti-Missile Shield Unnecessary

As tension mounts between the western powers and Iran due to the latter’s controversial nuclear program and missiles test-firing, Russia joined the debate and said the United States have no military justification for deploying missile defenses in Eastern Europe because Tehran's long-range missiles cannot reach that region.

The rockets test-fired by Iran over the past two days are capable of reaching and destroying targets located in countries such as Israel and other Middle Eastern countries where the U.S. has several military bases.

While Washington said that a shield is needed in Eastern Europe to protect the old continent from missiles fired from countries such as Iran, Moscow argued that these U.S. plans are a direct threat to Russia’s security.

"The tests in Iran have only confirmed that Iran at the moment has rockets with a range of up to 1,243 miles. That confirms what we have said before," Russian Foreign Minister Sergey Lavrov said during a news conference after talks with Jordanian Foreign Minister Salaheddin Al-Bashir.

Lavrov added that Russia is convinced about the “invented nature” of United States’ consideration of the Iranian rocket threat as a reason to deploy the missile shield in Europe.
