Several years ago, the United States started accusing Russia of violating the INF Treaty, without providing any evidence. We basically had to pry the information from the US, information that would help us understand... what they meant. The US eventually mentioned the 9M729 missile, claiming that it had been tested on certain days at a certain testing site, and that the range violated the treaty's provisions. Our data concerning these tests showed the opposite. The missile's range is allowed under the treaty. (Sergey Lavrov)
