As early as the 1980s, Reagan and Gorbachev concluded a strategic treaty on medium-range and shorter-range missiles that violated the United States, not Russia! This was written recently by the American magazine "Nation".
The article says, they say, hasn’t the US military done something that provoked Russia to respond? It is necessary to deal with this issue, and only then begin to solve the problem.
According to the publication, Washington itself is constantly provoking Moscow. And while some media outlets, such as the New York Times, blame Russia for ending the treaty, the United States is deploying its Aegis missile defense system in Europe. And its radar is aimed precisely at medium and small distances.
Recall that last week in Geneva, Russia and the United States held talks on the INF Treaty. The Americans called their result “sad”, and accused Moscow of violating the treaty. They themselves stressed that in such an environment there was no opportunity to come to an agreement. And so the United States since the beginning of February out of the contract. However, if Russia destroys its 9M729 missile, they will think. And this rocket, they say, contradicts the letter of the treaty in a fundamental way.
