Russian Deputy Foreign Minister Sergey Ryabkov stated that American missile systems are increasingly being deployed in regions that directly affect Russia's security. In response, Russia has ended its moratorium on the deployment of medium- and short-range missile systems, which it continued to develop during the moratorium period. Ryabkov confirmed that Russia now possesses a substantial arsenal of these weapons. He also revealed the existence of a new advanced weapon system that surpasses the Oreshnik missile, although he did not disclose further details. Russia's actions are framed as a response to the growing presence of U.S. military systems near Russian territory, with Ryabkov emphasizing that Russia had no alternative but to act. The developments have contributed to escalating tensions between Russia and the United States, as well as NATO.
