US Rejects Russian Missile Proposal
-----------------------------------



And the Bush administration has rejected a Russian proposal that both
governments agree to drop plans for a missile deployment in eastern
Europe. On Thursday, Russia said it would agree to not deploy missiles
in Kaliningrad if the US agreed to scrap its plan to place missiles in
Poland and a radar site in the Czech Republic. Defense Secretary Robert
Gates rejected the move, calling it unacceptable.
