While most long-time allies of the United States share U.S. perceptions of
the threats posed by ballistic
missiles, many have specific concerns over U.S. development of BMD. Most,
including U.S. European allies and Japan,
favor the development of defensive systems to counter
short-range and
medium-range missile threats
in their regions. Toward this goal, Israel
and other states are cooperating with the United States to develop defenses
against short-range and medium-range missiles.
