Expert: Missiles threaten Europe more than US

Europe is exposed to the risk of being attacked by hostile missiles sooner than the USA, U.S. expert Jack Crouch, a former aide to President George Bush, said at a conference on the planned U.S. anti-missile shield in Central Europe in Prague Tuesday. Crouch said it was impossible to wait for the risk of the attacks to be quite real.

The United States plans to build a radar base in the Brdy military district, some 90 km southwest of Prague, along with a base for ten interceptor missiles in Poland as elements of the U.S. missile defence shield that is to protect the United States and a large part of Europe against missiles that states like Iran might launch.
