10:20 pm
president obama were able to sign the treaty before us republicans didn't control of the senate and then they demanded for these amendments or so-called special statements in order for the treaty to be able to past where you at any point. concerned that this treaty may not be ratified needless to say that for us in the upper chamber of the russian parliament all the work on the cation has started long before the document was brought. to the floor to vote and we started our consultations with our colleagues in the u.s. senate even during the talks in geneva when negotiators
10:21 pm
teams were joined by american senators and by russian senators when we met in prague during the procedure of signing of that agreement and right after the agreement was signed in prague in april we sent our delegation to washington we have a permanent working group the u.s. senate the russian federation council permanent working group which works successfully for the last almost eighty years it's co-chaired by ben nelson democrat from nebraska and by myself on the russian side so we started our consultations long ago and we were let's say trying to remove all the speed bumps on the way of the read the for creation which could appear because the discussion was rather tough both in washington and did moscow and i think we did a significant amount of work together showing that for us both on the capitol hill
10:22 pm
and here in moscow the word that is a reset is not just a word we mean when we say the reset we need that reset unfortunately during the last twenty years we've failed to work out the positive bilateral agenda both scald war agenda in our bilateral relations it's time to correct the mistakes of the past it's time to use that opportunity or lose it what impact does the ratification of the treaty have on we set off relations between moscow and washington i think it's a paved the way for the continuation of. so that joint work. again i consider that work to be the work on the positive bilateral agenda we did a lot of by the way working on the revocation we managed to pass successfully through the u.s. senate the
10:23 pm
a so-called wanted three agreement on the russian american cup ration in the nuclear field i mean the peaceful part of it the nuclear energy and. that is concerned we also are moving forward on the russians w t o accession america is very supportive we are moving relatively fast and i think that two thousand and eleven will be the year of russia's w t o accession after that will merican partners will have to do their part of their homework i mean repealing the so-called jackson benteke amendment which is one of the dinosaurs of political address it parker of the time of the cold war. but it's not enough we have to have more time as we have to have more docking mechanisms we have to have more bridges the more interdependent we are the better it is for our future the u.s. interpretation of the treaty says that it does not obstruct from any missile
10:24 pm
defense plans while russia insists there's a concrete link between offensive and defensive forms does this mean that there is a fundamentally incompatible understanding of this treaty on on both sides well. much has happened after the treaty was signed on the eighth of april two thousand and ten in prague. nato and russia have successfully started the process of negotiations of joint missile defense project we started working together and we are planning to continue that work united states of america is a cornerstone of nato alliance we understand that pretty well so if we do that i mean missile defense project with nato that means that we shall be doing that project also together with the united states of america and other nato member states so i think that the signing of. the
10:25 pm
prague treaty between. the united states american and russian federation gave very positive impact on the process of restoring mutual understanding and mutual trust between russia and nato so we are moving ahead and i think that the rectification will help that movement a lot is it fair to say that russia has embraced the spirit of the treaty while the u.s. is focused strictly on the your letter off the law well actually i think many people both in washington and in moscow have embrace the spirit of the treaty the problem for my american colleagues the way i see it is a very tough. a discussion very tough you few allow me to call it political fight between the democrats on the rip and the republicans mostly on. internal agenda and unfortunately as it very often happens in many countries foreign policy and
10:26 pm
security issues become a kind of hostage of the debate on internal issues and we were really concerned during the debates in the u.s. senate that the reservation may become. kind of the victim of that discussion between democrats and republicans on the internal agenda well the political wisdom prevailed that was a very good signal a very good indication that foreign policy does not become a hostage of internal debate but i think that most of the concerns and most of the criticism about the product treaty were connected with internal issues not not with the with the not not really with the with the perception of of russia as as a partner of the united states of america despite the differences in interpretation it's definitely that this treaty is a great example for other countries how likely is it do you think that others may
10:27 pm
join history well others should not join this treaty this is our cup of tea and we shall be drinking that tea together with our american partners big boys are sending a strong signal to the others we are reducing our nuclear arsenals. watch will lips we are sending a signal to you the next phase will involve your nuclear arsenals otherwise it will all be a fair play. welcome to the. moon we need to survive in space see him and don't think a lot more regenerative life support seems just from our own waste special exercise equipment fight stuff life and psychological prep keeps the strain off the brain
