Russia will work with NATO on missile defence: Medvedev

Russian President Dmitry Medvedev confirmed Saturday that he had agreed to work with Moscow’s former Western foe NATO to plan a European missile defence shield.

“We have ambitious plans, we will work across all directions including European missile defense, and the Russia-NATO council has demonstrated that,” Medvedev said after a summit with NATO leaders in Lisbon.
