U.S., Czech missile deal prompts Moscow warning
PRAGUE (Reuters) - The United States signed a pact on Tuesday to build part of a U.S. missile defense shield in the Czech Republic, prompting neighboring Russia to warn it will react with military means if the shield is deployed.
You referred to Russia as “neighboring ” to the Czech Republic. When I am looking at the map of Europe, I see half a dozen countries and thousand kilometers between Russia and the Czech Republic. It is closer from Prague to London then Moscow - I am missing something?

I thought it was just the opposite, i.e., that the Russians stated that they would NOT overreact to the U.S.-Czech deal.

P.S. Mr. Editor: Perhaps I’ve missed the purpose of this web log. Is my comment not a legitimate one, i.e., in light of your narrative: “…prompting neighboring Russia to warn it will react with military means if the shield is deployed.”
