Russian Military Rules Out Using Ballistic Missiles Against ISIL Targets

TEHRAN (FNA)- Russia's Strategic Missile Forces (SMF) commander said using intercontinental ballistic missiles to hit ISIL targets would be irrational.

It would be irrational for Russia to use intercontinental ballistic missiles against the ISIL militant group, SMF Commander Col. Gen. Sergei Karakaev said Wednesday, Sputnik reported.

"I see no need to use SMF missiles against ISIL targets," Karakaev added during a press conference, answering a reporter’s question.

The general said that Russia had other means of destroying ISIL positions. "Rational planning means that each target is engaged by the most effective weapon system at hand," he explained.

Karakaev added that the decision to use ICBMs with any type of warhead could only be taken by Russia’s commander-in-chief.

SMF is a branch of the Russian Armed Forces which is the backbone of the country’s Strategic Nuclear Forces, designed for nuclear deterrence. It has a range of ICBMs at its disposal, including Topols.

記者からの質問に答えた発言だが、言外に使うと決めれば使えると言っている。抑止力というのがロシアの立場だが、不気味さを感じる人も多いだろう。それを狙った発言だろうが。

Turkey will not be able to violate the Syria airspace after Russia had deployed S-400 defense system in Hmeymim airabse, Russian president Vladimir Putin told journalists during the press-conference in Moscow.

With Russia's deployment of the S-400 anti-aircraft system, Turkey will not be able to violate Syria's airspace with impunity, as they had previously done, Russian President Vladimir Putin said Thursday at his annual press conference.

"They [Turkish authorities] thought that we would turn tail and run! No, Russia is not that country. We have increased our presence in Syria, have increased the number of combat aircraft deployed there. There was no Russian air defense system there –now there's the S-400. If before, Turkey had constantly violated Syrian airspace, let them try it now."
