Washington remains silent on Missile Defence Review timeline

The US DoD has finished conducting a review of its missile defence efforts but has not yet decided when the results will be released, according to a top Pentagon official.

A Pentagon spokesperson also declined to discuss the review. It is unclear what the exact holdup is. In early September, John Rood, undersecretary of defence for policy, testified before a congressional panel that he hoped to release a report on the review’s findings imminently.
