/PanARMENIAN.Net/ Russia and U.S. have a chance to agree on joint
exploitation of Gabalin Radar in Azerbaijan to establish an Anti
Missile Defense System, said Leonid Slucki, the 1st deputy chairman of
State Duma(Assembly) on International Affairs. `Quite possible that
presidents Obama and Medvedev will come to a consensus on the issue of
Gabalin Radar' and this will be a new step in Russia and
U.S.relation,'Slucki said.
In his opinion the exploitation of Gabalin Radar is more logical from
the military and technical point of view than the American Anti
Missile Defense in Eastern Europe. The deputy did not deny that the
U.S. may be considering such possibility and reminded that Azerbaijan
had already given its consent to use the radar. Under the conditions
of the world financial crisis the Anti Missile Defense System in
Europe is not a `very reasonable' idea, he said , reports RIA-Novosti.
Moscow proposed to exploit Russian radars in Gabal as well as in
Armavir in return to American percussion means in Poland and the
radars in the Czech Republic. The U.S. plans to install Anti Missile
Defense System in Europe by 2013 under pretence of defense from the
supposed missile threat by Iran.
