General Yuri Baluyevsky says Russia has no plans to attack anyone. But he says the world must understand that military forces, including nuclear bombs, will be used to defend Russia if it faces a major threat.
Baluyevsky's comments come at a time of increasing tensions between Russia and the West. Relations have been strained due to several issues, including: plans for U.S. missile defense facilities in former Soviet countries; NATO's refusal to ratify a new conventional weapons treaty; and the mysterious murder of former KGB agent Alexander Litvinenko with a rare radioactive poison in London in 2006.

DALMACIJA:
Right now the US and EU authorities are planning with for example Poland to launce a missile defense system.
I think this is Russia’s reaction to the planning of the establishment of the missile system around Russia’s borders.
Does the west really need this rocket system near the borders with Russia?
This is just an other provocation and it is bringing the whole continent in danger.
