“We once again draw attention to a number of Washington’s actions, including the deployment of elements of the global missile defense system on the territory of Japan, the strengthening of its military presence in the region and, in general, actions in the field of disarmament and arms control, where the United States destroys all existing agreements,” Lavrov said after talks with his Japanese counterpart Taro Kono in Moscow.
"We see in these actions a threat to our country," Foreign Minister Sergei Lavrov stressed.
