Well, supposedly, the latest Soviet SS-NX-30 Bulava nuclear SLBM has a 10,000km range, up to ten MIRV'd warheads, is impervious to EMP damage, has decoy systems on board, and can perform evasive flight course changes too (They started building it last month BTW).

So if all that is true, then the answer would be: He could probably be tied up at the dock in Sevastapol, the US would react by firing a load back at Russia and then bend over and kiss its ass goodbye, because stuff like the Patriot system wouldn't be able to intercept it, and depending on whether they had 30, or 60 minutes, they would probably choose between watching an episode of the Simpsons, or maybe Star Trek.
