Kremlin considers NATO's missile shield "direct threat"

"From the very outset we kept saying that in the opinion of our experts the deployment of an anti-missile defense poses a threat to Russia," Kremlin spokesperson Dmitry Peskov said on Thursday, according to TASS.

He added: "The question is not whether measures will be taken or not; measures are being taken to maintain Russia’s security at the necessary level."

Peskov also "recalled that Russian President Vladimir Putin repeatedly asked who that system was working against and who it would be working against in the future."

Meanwhile in Romania, President Klaus Iohannis said the shield was "not a threat to anyone" - and that it "cannot be used in offensive operations."
