Topic Reading-Vol.1504-5/24/2016

Dear MEL Topic Readers,
Protecting Europe from ballistic missiles
Does a strong defense system stimulate or deter aggression by others? Or will it simply destruct the power balance between countries?
At least Russia seems to feel NATO’s recently deployed advance missile defense system threatening to their proud ballistic missiles. The only justification of the ballistic missile system is deterrence. Once the capability becomes ineffective or questionable, there is no card to play with. Therefore, no matter how much NATO officials deny, Russia seems to feel threatened and work toward upgrading their defense and offense capabilities.
Though power balance only benefits those who have powers, it is still a convenient and practical solution to prevent a war from happening.
Enjoy reading and learning what deters foreign aggressions.
