...along in development, the Pershing II could be based in Europe by the mid-1980s, and this prospect has already prompted denunciations from the Kremlin. Britain is expected to base some new Pershings on its territory, but West Germany last week indicated that it would do so only if joined by one other Continental NATO member. Bonn's ruling Social Democratic Party is worried about a potential uproar from its vocal left wing if West Germany becomes the only Continental NATO state to have nuclear missiles capable of reaching the U.S.S.R.
