The chief of the General Staff of Russia, Valery Gerasimov, said that all strategic facilities in the European part of Russia would be in danger if the US missile defense system in Poland was equipped with Tomahawk missiles.

This is reported by the Kremlin propaganda resource "Zvezda".

Gerasimov said that the deployment of NATO's anti-missile system is one of the factors of increasing tensions in Europe.

"The work is being deployed to deploy US anti-missiles in Poland by 2018. On the basis of missile defense in Romania, there are universal launchers, from which not only antimissiles can be launched, but also Tomahawk cruise missiles, "he said..

According to the Chief of the General Staff, if the same installations are deployed in Poland, then under the sight of cruise missiles will be all the strategic facilities that are in the European part of Russia.

"In this case, Russia will be forced to take measures to ensure its security. But this is not so important, "Gerasimov said..
