"I do not think that the Danes fully understand the consequences if Denmark joins the US-led missile defence shield. If that happens, Danish warships become targets for Russian nuclear missiles," Russia's ambassador to Denmark Mikhail Vanin told Jyllands-Posten.

Vanin said that Denmark would become "part of the threat to Russia and relations with Russia will be damaged". Vanin warned that joining the defence shield would be "Denmark's decision" and that the country would "lose both money and security".
