CNBC: Russia threatens military response to any NATO action over nuclear-ready missile
* NATO has said Russia’s SSC-8 missile violates terms of a 1987 missile treaty.
* The alliance has said it will act to mitigate the Russian threat.
* Russia has in turn said it would take “countervailing military measures.”
Moscow has said it will take “countervailing military measures” should NATO fulfil any threat related to Russia’s nuclear-ready cruise missile system.
NATO Secretary-General Jens Stoltenberg said Tuesday that Russia must dismantle the short-range system, or the alliance will be forced to respond, adding that NATO-member defense ministers would now look at next steps “in the event that Russia does not comply.”
No detail is yet known over what NATO might do although Stoltenberg said the alliance would not engage in any arms race.
