Obama's move drew praise from fellow Democrats and some arms control advocates who said the Bush plan was aimed at a Iranian missile threat that did not yet exist.
While Senator John McCain said "What signal to we send to our friends in eastern Europe, and what signal do we send to (Russian Prime Minister) Vladimir Putin, who most vociferously announced on numerous occasions his opposition to this plan?"
Obama said that the United States is committed to defend the Czech Republic and Poland as required under NATO's Article V which states that an attack on one NATO country is an attack on all.
