Reuters --- Unfazed by the string of
economic pressures from the West, as headlined by the fresh sanctions announced
Friday by U.S. President Barack Obama, Russian leader Vladimir Putin revealed
this week that Moscow
will acquire 50 more intercontinental ballistic missiles (ICBM) by end of 2015,
further increasing the drumbeats of war.
A defiant Putin
informed Russia 's
defence officials at the end of the week that by next year, the country's
arsenal of ICBMs will see the delivery of around 80 more nuclear missiles. This
2014, the Kremlin acknowledged that 38 ICBMs were received by the Strategic
Nuclear Forces, Russia's ITAR-Tass news agency said in a new report.
