Berlin is considering buying a missile defence system from Israel or the United States to defend against threats including Russian Iskander missiles in Kaliningrad, German weekly Welt am Sonntag reported on Saturday.

He did not specify the names of the systems but was most likely referring to Arrow 3 from Israel and the U.S. system, THAAD.
