US radars to screen Asia, including Russia, says
official

The planned U.S. radar base on Czech soil, along with
a U.S. radar in Japan, is to watch Russia and Asia,
Czech Lower Kouse Deputy Chairman Lubomir Zaoralek
said on Thursday (Xinhua Report).

The U.S. missile defense system has no perspective and
the ideas about it were exaggerated already when the
decision was made about its building, the Czech news
agency CTK quoted Zaoralek, senior opposition Social
Democrat, as saying.

However, the planned radar base in Brdy itself has a
sense since it might become part of a global security
system, Zaoralek said.

He mentioned the disputes about NATO's original role
and its future goals.

The United States has proposed that NATO admit new
members and collaborators, such as Australia, New
Zealand, South Korea and Japan, and become a global
security player, he said.

Under such circumstances, the considered missile
defense system would be meaningful, he pointed out.
NATO has lost its old role and has not yet found a new
one, he added.

The United States initiated the plan to deploy an
anti-missile radar base in the Czech Republic and a
missile interceptor base in Poland. Negotiations
between the Czech Republic and the United States are
still underway.

Russia has expressed strong objections to the U.S.
missile defense program in Poland and the Czech
Republic.

The Czech center-right government favors the project,
while the left opposition, the CSSD and the
Communists, and 70 percent of Czech citizens are
opposed to the base, according to public opinion
polls.
