US May Ask More Asian Countries to Deploy Its Middle-Range, Long-Range Missiles - Lavrov
11:19 GMT 29.05.2024 (Updated: 11:22 GMT 29.05.2024) MOSCOW (Sputnik) - Russian Foreign Minister Sergey Lavrov said on Wednesday he was confident that the United States would ask some Asian states, apart from the Philippines, to allow deployment of its middle- and long-range missiles.
Currently such missiles are being deployed in the Philippines and Denmark, top diplomat stressed.
"The Americans originally withdrew from this treaty [Intermediate-Range Nuclear Forces Treaty] to explore new areas [of deployment], including the Philippines. And I am sure that other countries in the Asia-Pacific region will also be asked to provide hospitable territory for similar weapons," Lavrov said during a diplomatic roundtable on the settlement of the situation around Ukraine in Moscow.
In April, the US army said
it had deployed the Mid-Range Capability, also known as the Typhon Weapon System, to Northern Luzon, Philippines, for exercise Salaknib 24.
