The Kremlin indicated on Wednesday that President Donald Trump's "Golden Dome" missile shield plans could force the resumption in the foreseeable future of contacts between Moscow and Washington about nuclear arms control.

President Donald Trump announced construction will begin soon on a "Golden Dome," a new missile defense system to protect the US from foreign attacks.

Donald Trump unveiled concepts for his £400 billion Golden Dome missile defence program at the White House, which he hopes will be "fully operational" before the end of his term in 2029

Russia and China already possess thousands of weapons that could hit the U.S. homeland that the "Golden Dome" will ideally intercept once operational.
