Should Russia make an agreement with Venezuela to position a missile defence shield in that country?

Question

Who says that history doesn't repeat itself. Think Cuba missile crisis!

Answer 1

Who would attack Venezuela?

Answer 2

they are negotiating now.

Answer 3

They can feel free, but considering the state of Russian military technology it won't matter.  Russian air defense systems can't even stop modern American and Israeli aircraft, much less an intercontinental ballistic missile.  Look at how easily Israeli planes penetrated Syrian airspace despite Syria having the best Russian air defense that money could buy.  

The reason the USA wants to put missile defense in Europe is because we can.  The Russians have no missile defense system in operation.  They haven't gotten that far yet.  The US and Israel have been working on several new systems including MTHEL, which uses a chemical dye laser to take out targets as small as a mortar shell.  It has been tested successfuly against multiple targets.  Russia has no comperable systems.

  Russia, Iran, and other nations do, however, have ballistic missiles.  That technology has been around since the German V2 rocket in WWII.  We all have the weapon, but the USA has developed the armor.

Answer 4

they can try,  but as i recall, when Russia tried that in Cuba, they failed. so if history repeats itself, then Russia will fail again.  Russia is weak

Answer 5

They most likely do it. This so much like the cold war that it scares. I lived thru the cold war.
