Russia In Ukraine Missile Threat

MOSCOW, Russia -- Russia has said it may target its missiles at Ukraine if its neighbour joins NATO and accepts the deployment of the US missile defence shield.


Russian President Vladimir Putin made the comments alongside Ukraine's President, Viktor Yushchenko.

After urgent talks in Moscow, the two leaders reached a deal to avoid disrupting gas supplies to Ukraine.

Mr Putin has condemned US plans to include Poland and the Czech Republic in its missile defence shield.
