Moscow issued a stark warning to Copenhagen on Saturday, saying that the Danish navy will be targeted for potential nuclear attacks from Russia if Denmark joins the NATO missile defence shield.
"I don't think that Danes fully understand the consequence if Denmark joins the American-led missile defence shield," Mikhail Vanin, the Russian ambassador to Denmark, told the Jyllands-Posten newspaper. "If they do, then Danish warships will be targets for Russian nuclear missiles."
Mr Vanin went on to say that if Copenhagen joined the NATO missile defence system the Baltic state would become a great threat to Russia and relations between the two countries would be "less peaceful."
