The Russian government indicated on Wednesday (21) that President Donald Trump’s plans for the American Golden Domo Antimissile Shield could force the resumption of contacts between Moscow and Washington on nuclear weapons control in the near future.
When asked about Trump’s announcement that he had selected a project for the $ 175 billion anti-aircraft system, Kremlin spokesman Dmitry Peskov said the project is a US sovereignty.
The so -called Golden Dome, inspired by the Israeli Iron Domo Earth Defense Shield, is an ambitious project that aims to block threats from China and Russia, which the United States consider its two largest geopolitical competitors.
Asked if Russia saw the project as a threat to the nuclear parity of both countries, Peskov said there were no details about the American project and that there remained many nuances.
“In the near future, the event itself requires the resumption of contacts on strategic stability issues,” said Dmitry Peskov.
Russia and the United States, by far the largest nuclear powers, lamented the disintegration of weapon control treaties that sought to slow the arms race and reduce the risk of nuclear war.
Washington blames Moscow for the collapse of agreements such as the 1972 Anti -Balistic Missile Treaty and the 1987 Nuclear Forces Treaty (INF).
The US formally retired from the INF treaty in 2019, citing Russian violations Moscow denied. They also retired from Treaty ABM in 2002.
“Now that the legal structure in this area has been destroyed and the expiration date has expired, or deliberately, say, several documents are no longer valid, this basis should be recreated in both the interest of our two countries and the security across the planet,” Peskov commented.
