Mr. Antonov said the US’s plan to deploy a missile defense system was creating problems for both Russia and China. The Interfax news agency quoted Mr. Antonov as saying  it is very dangerous when one country secures its own security at the expense of other countries' security. Russian President Vladimir Putin last month warned Romania and Poland that they could find themselves in the sights of Russian rockets because they are hosting elements of the US missile shield that Moscow considers a threat to its security.
