I know that the best solution is being looked for now. Whatever it is, Slovakia will be part of it. Madame Secretary, the Russian Foreign Minister says he opposes any amendment to the ABM treaty. Yes, actually, I spoke to the Russian Foreign Minister this morning. We were primarily talking about Kosovo, but we also spoke about the large agenda of items that we will have to talk about when I get to Moscow.
Arms control is clearly one of the central issues.
Let me say that, as I will say to him, and I actually said on an interview which will appear on Russian television, I think, on Sunday, that we are committed to the essential, basic, strategic aspects of the ABM treaty. It s the basis of an arms control regime that has now existed for decades, and one that we are committed to. I think that we, however, have many new threats with which to deal. We need to make sure that we are able to fulfill our responsibilities regarding our own defense. But, there need be no concerns about withdrawal.
