The United States failed to prove violation of the INF on the part of the Russian Federation

And after all, what is noteworthy is that the United States has not yet provided evidence that Russia violated the Treaty on the Prohibition of Missiles of Medium and Short Range. This was told by Deputy Foreign Minister Sergei Ryabkov.

According to the deputy minister, the American side provided a certain snapshot. As the Americans assured, this is a satellite image. And even presented the address of the resource where you can get such a photo. In addition, the United States showed photos of a number of objects taken at the Kapustin Yar test site, from which launches were allegedly made, and reported two dates on which they were carried out.

However, neither satellite photographs nor the dates stamped on them can confirm or deny the range over which the rocket was launched. At this moment, the deputy minister paid special attention.

He also noted that the appearance of American installations in Poland and Romania capable of launching Tomahawk type cruise missiles is a direct violation of the INF Treaty. Moscow cannot close its eyes to the fact that in the worst scenario of the development of a land-based scenario, 24 Tomahawk cruise missiles with nuclear equipment may appear!
