Russianforces.org : It looks like Russia is preparing the ground for pulling out of the INF Treaty. For about two years now it has been trying to get the United States to agree to terminate the treaty, but apparently without success. Today most Russian news agencies quoted an unnamed Ministry of Defense official who said in an interview to RIA Novosti that “if necessary, Russia will withdraw from the INF Treaty unilaterally.” No points for guessing what kind of precedent was mentioned in this regard - he said, “We’ve seen precedents like this before - the United States withdrew from the ABM Treaty.”
