Russia may deploy missiles in Belarus: general
MOSCOW (Reuters) - Russia may deploy its newest Iskander tactical missiles in neighboring Belarus in response to U.S. plans for a missile shield in eastern Europe, Russian media quoted a senior general as saying on Wednesday.
Asked if the missiles could be deployed in response to the U.S. shield, Major-General Vladimir Zaritsky, head of Russia's artillery and missile forces, was quoted as saying by Itar-Tass news agency: "Why not? Under the right conditions and with the corresponding agreement of Belarus, it is possible."
