Russia not our enemy - Bush Putin warning 'not helpful' Russia: US wants new arms race US warned over arms sales Man charged over missile parts

Heiligendamm - Russian President Vladimir Putin, bitterly opposed to a US plan for a missile shield in Europe, told US President George W Bush on Thursday that Moscow would drop its objections if the radar-based system were installed in the central Asian nation of Azerbaijan.

Bush has proposed putting the radar and rockets in the Czech Republic and Poland.

Putin told Bush he would drop his threat to retarget Russian missiles on Europe, if the United States agreed to put the system in Azerbaijan.

There was no immediate US reaction.
