October 8, 2016 (UNIAN Information Agency) Russia is moving nuclear-capable missiles into
Kaliningrad, a tiny Russian enclave sitting between Poland and Lithuania, a
U.S. intelligence official said Friday, confirming Estonian news reports,
according to Reuters.
Russia's reasons for shipping the
500-kilometer-range Iskander-M missiles to Kaliningrad "could be
innocuous," said the official, who spoke on condition of anonymity, as
reported by Reuters. "They moved a similar missile system to
Kaliningrad in 2014 for a military exercise. It could also be a political
gesture - a show of strength - to express displeasure with NATO," said the
official.
