The United States' deployment of anti-missile systems in Europe and Asia-Pacific is aimed at curbing Russia's and China's strategic nuclear strength and consolidating the U.S. hegemony, he said.

He said Russia doubts the United States' claims that THAAD is needed to defend against missiles from the Democratic People's Republic of Korea.

The anti-missile system is strategically assaultive, which aims to establish absolute advantage over any potential rivals worldwide, said Poznikhir.

He also reiterated a Sino-Russian proposal that related parties should conclude a treaty through negotiation on preventing the deployment of weapons in outer-space and preventing the use of or threatening to use weapons against outer-space objects.

Russia also wants the United States to make a legally binding pledge that its European anti-missile system will not target Russia's strategic nuclear force, the Lt. Gen. said.
