The Kremlin evaluated the test of the US previously banned INF Treaty missile

“I can’t comment somehow from a technical point of view, from the point of view of the technical characteristics of this missile, but we have repeatedly stated that the United States has long been preparing to violate the provisions of the INF Treaty,” Peskov said.

According to him, the test reports only eloquently confirms that the contract was actually broken at the initiative of the United States.

Earlier it became known that the first US ballistic missile test, which had previously been banned by the INF Treaty, was successful.

On August 19, the Pentagon also announced the test of a banned INF Treaty cruise missile.

The United States withdrew from the INF Treaty on August 2 under the pretext of violations of the agreement allegedly committed by Russia.
