Moscow lashed out at Washington and Warsaw on Friday, saying the plan to site a US anti-missile defence shield in Poland would undermine the global balance of power and put Poland at risk of nuclear attack.
Washington and Warsaw reached a preliminary agreement on Thursday to build part of the missile defence shield in Poland, station US Patriot missiles there and bolster the two countries military co-operation.
The US claims the shield in Poland, as well as a radar tracking base to be located in the Czech Republic, is designed to defend against rogue states such as Iran.
