Archives

Russian General Leonid Ivashov said in an interview on Norwegian TV that the radar at Vardo, in northern Norway, is illegal under the ABM Treaty and would be destroyed by a nuclear weapon in the event of a nuclear war between the US and Russia. Norway called the threat of a nuclear attack on a Norwegian city "outrageous" and said that the radar was merely for space tracking.--Stephen V Cole
