Russia threatened on Wednesday to deploy missiles to target the US missile shield in Europe if Washington fails to assuage Moscow's concerns about its plans, a harsh warning that reflected deep cracks in US-Russian ties despite President Barack Obama's efforts to "reset" relations with the Kremlin. President Dmitry Medvedev said he still hopes for a deal with the US on missile defense, but he strongly accused Washington and its NATO allies of ignoring Russia's worries. He said Russia will have to take military countermeasures if the US continues to build the shield without legal guarantees that it will not be aimed against Russia. tags: russian USSR soviet union ballistic missile defense NATO nuclear war moscow kremlin wwiii conflict georgia ukraine strikes world war iii 3 Dmitry Medvedev russia targeted
