When asked about the launch, Ivanov said Russia's "new tactical and strategic complexes are able to overcome any existing or future missile defence system", Itar-Tass reported.

So why are they so afraid of the defensive system Poland and the Czech Republic are letting the US setup on their territory?

They aren't afraid of anything. Its the embarrassment of being marginalized even more in the post cold war world.

Russia retains the mindset of a colonial empire. Look at what continues to happen in Chechnya. They’re imperialists pure and simple.
