Where's President-elect Obama?!? Not a peep. Not surprised. But I think it would be appropriate for the new President-elect to address this. This is a hostile move by the Russians meant to jab at us for our intervention in Georgia. And is clearly meant as more tests for Mr. Obama. The prospects of the next 4 years are frightening.
Edit to add: AVG's right. Our missile defense proposals are a factor as well. Forgot about that. Even though Mr. Obama has shown a disdain for such a system. Like I said before in another thread, if Mr. Obama removes the missile defenses (and it's a real possibility), I have my doubts that it will affect Russian missile deployments in any way. That is, the Russians are going to put their missiles up Eastern Europe's rear-end regardless. Missile defense or no missile defense.
