is that the russian federation official policy, it has not been revoked? this is the russian interpretation of what our two governments have agreed to in the preamble. they seem to believe that this clause limits u.s. missile defense systems. they seem to believe that the language of this clause about -- quote -- "the effectiveness and viability of the treaty" means that any buildup or improvement in u.s. missile defense systems would undermine the treaty. and they seem to believe there is a clear and legal binding connection between what was agreed to in this clause of the preamble and article 14 of the treaty, which establishes the rights of the parties to withdraw from the treaty and the conditions under which they may do so. in short, the russian government seems to believe that this nonbinding political agreement is the pretext for a legal obligation under the treaty itself. and if the united states builds up its missile defense, russia will withdraw from the treaty. now, let's listen to what the russian leaders have said. i mean, this is not made up.

russian federation's court decisions in the united states of america because during this new agreement it wouldn't be necessary to. have a decision in the united states of america court just enough to have a decision of the russian federation court and business season will be recognized in that is this of america's really important what's the position of our states in general on adoption of russian nationals by foreign parents the main position is we . have to be patient we have to. recognize our obligations which our state law. give to us i mean we have a special. article in our family court which. gives a right for any overseas adoptive families to adopt the russian child if this child cannot find the family inside the country more than say one hundred thousand children orphans was all part of the control it was all part of the support and the situation we're here to initiate a different process inside the country to stimulate our citizen to adopt our russian children and to stay these children inside the company because we don't have so many children all countries but question child

the resolution of ratification encourages the president to engage the russian federation on establishing measures to improve mutual confidence regarding the accounting and security of russian nonstrategic weapons. that has been deliberately put into the text that we are discussing today. for this reason, i oppose the amendment becau i fact it would require renegotiation of the treaty. i've suggested, mr. president, that that is unlikely to come about very rapidly and very readily. one of the amazing things about the current situation was that with the expiring of the start treaty a year ago december, that we were able to get together with the russians admittedly on a limited agenda. and those who are proponents of the treaty have said from the start that it's a limited agenda. small reductions in strategic arms, an idea once again a verification and the possibilities that having at least reached limited agreements, we might in fact meet again around the negotiating table. to think through the tactical situation and other aspects. and, mr. president, the very important objective we do hav

weakening military capabilities of the russian federation we've brought opposition to the attention of nato entities at some point the situation became serious serious that i had taken on pleasant decision to deploy additional missiles and consequently the new administration abandoned its decision which was the right thing to do. the idea of an a.b.m. system has been preserved the muscle that was proposed to us to consider the place of the russian federation occupies the european a.b.m. system which strain created on the basis of nato has capabilities for primarily their use of united states of america and i told president obama right ok we're ready but we want such a project to be equal so that we can understand the place of the russian federation the threats that are jointly addressed the true nature of these threats the responsibility that we have you know i'm going to say something which i hope will not offend friends and my u.s. counterparts i told president obama frankly that the foundation we were building would be of great importance for the situation that all of us would face

partners the usa as well as other partners are nature to study thoroughly the i say over the russian federation which are you know russians can get us because we're going to thank you very much indeed mr president and i think there's well for on screen some of the questions and finding the time to meet with us at the single thank you. we'll. bring you the latest in science and technology from around russia. we've dumped the future covered. they faced it this is not a prohibition but a warning that. may force it let me share the first step for you sure the supreme victory speaks they have no idea about the hardships to face. they wanted to says it is all too nice to. bring the army to life never using them is the most precious thing in the world. is of self-sacrifice and heroism but those who understand it fully but you have to live a. real life stories from world war two so. victory nineteen forty five don't r.t. dot com. in india ulti is available in the movie the joint the hotels the i love you lots the gateway photo the grand imperial troy the tall western coast coromandel new kind of let he

he previously served as president of the russian federation. it's a great pleasure to welcome him back to "larry king live." mr. prime minister, we thank you for joining us. we know -- let's start right off, we know that you're eligible to run again for the presidency in 2012. are you thinking about doing that? >> translator: we've been working with president medvedev in very close contact and we decided long time ago, that we'll adopt a concerted decision as regards to year 2012 in the interest of the russian people. >> larry: so that is a maybe? >> translator: we'll see. there is still quite time before the elections take place. that should be in april, year 2012. once again, we will be in consultations and we'll adopt that decision based on the economic, social and political situation in the country. >> larry: okay. let's get to current things. what do you make of the release of the united states diplomatic and military documents by the wikileaks group? >> translator: some experts believe that somebody is deceiving wikileaks. their reputatio

unlike in washington the russian parliament both chambers of the russian parliament the federation council and the state duma must approve these must be ready by the new start treaty and all the state duma has already started its deliberations and today we expect the voting in the first reading on the actual script of the new nuclear security treaty and they'll be two more sessions but most likely they will take place after new year. now in the us it was quite a rocky ride before the senate voted to approve the treaty tell us more about that . will of course the way but then you start has been a long time coming and it was very rocky this way to there was such in the u.s. russia relations to say the least long before president obama sealed this major deal with the signatures that had been long debates between the delegations of the both countries on the text of these treaty and of course the presidents knew that they'll be a lengthy very delicate process operative occasion in both countries and especially in the united states of america we've been. we've witnessed those along debates. heat

in the interim let me reiterate very strong concern of the russian federation that within hours there may be serious i could have an aggravation of tension a serious conflict for that matter so in the big chamber when we have this private meeting which was also of course asked for by the russian federation. we reiterated the call or for forty strained on both parties in the no uncertain terms. well the session was set up russia's request but the security council failed to find the agreement on how to ease tensions on the peninsula north korea and the south last month in response to some naval maneuvers four people died then but the young is warning it will strike back even harder next time. twin suicide attacks on military bases in two afghan cities of the thirteen people dead more than secure can do but it's in a stress to form stormed a recruitment center of the gun battle ensued earlier insurgents attacked a bus carrying on the offices in the capital kabul the country's main recruitment center to tell about it was sponsibility washington eyes at least and elizabeth says defeating t

will gain many supporters and fans both in india and in the russian federation. not only problem i take it they have also talked about internationally because you were not issuing of them they have not said or the prospects of. those think cooperation in international formats and i would like to point out. that russia considers india and a strong and with a candle to give up. her position. in the security council of the united nations if it's such decision not to expand this authority is on a go to move during the negotiations we. discussed for a formation of international financial institution was what you were interacting in the form of twenty on this matter and we also discussed the strength and security of the main the asian region and the pacific region as well and our cooperation within the break. we also talked about. the situation around afghanistan and exchanged opinions they need. further cooperation with the way. in combating terrorism and drug trafficking and i see a preview of russia well. in these ascension to the group when you were going on financ

russia is -- the russian federation is no longer the soviet union, and this is really the first reform vehicle of a new, young russian president that wants to enter into a much more transparent time with our country and has been of help to our country, specifically with iran, of letting our equipment go through russian land into afghanistan, when pakistan refused to do so; in terms of refusing to sell a missile defense system to iran when it had decided to do so, and i think what this projects to the world as a whole is very important in this world of asymmetric warfare. what it projects is that the united states and the russian federation is willing to stand together. and i think the gesture of that standing together that's envisioned in the enhanced cooperation of this treaty should never be underestimated. members, i think we need all of the major powers to come together in this new world of asymmetric warfare in which we are engaged and most likely will be engaged for a long period of time. so, i very much hope that the votes are there for ratificati ratification. let me end with t

practically in all regions of russian federation.practically in each large city and town are the more there for us this is a challenge. this is a kind of a challenge which i hope lead to development of football and i perceive that will have new players and. will show. the football i went as far as petitions our clubs are playing and as you know sometimes our clubs are playing very well if not to say brilliantly in their win in games the floor is yours. russian reporter. first of all i would like to congratulate you on this. and you to thank you when i would like to ask. our country israel of fast and large and practical of their world. provide our regions up to. do with sabeer and russian and. i think we can a developed everything at once that's first inside. we're talking about it it's a center of the country and thirdly we have to proceed from there wishes and requirements. even though. ten or twelve or thirteen cities. has to be. enable people to travel back and forth. speaking today when presenting they said he was born in the.

thereby establishing a political argument that the russian federation will surely use at a future date and try to keep us from building up our missile defenses. in short, we have handed the russian government the political pressure they have sought for so long to bind our future decisions and actions on strategic defensive arms. imagine a world a few years from now when, god forbid, an iran or a north korea or some other rogue state has deployed longer-range ballistic missiles and a tkhroeubl nuclear capability -- deployable nuclear capability much earlier than we assessed that they could. imagine we're faced with a situation where unforeseen events compel us for the sake of our national security and that of our allies to qualitatively and quantitatively build up our missile defenses to improve our current systems or develop and deploy new systems to counter a new and far greater threat than we expected. and then imagine that the russian government tells us that if we consider taking these actions, that we deem to be in our national security interest and such an action to improve our m

, the senate urges the presidt to engage the russian federation with the objects of, one, establishing cooperative measures to give each party to the new start treaty improved confidence regarding the accurate accounting and security of tactical nuclear weapons maintained by the other pared, and, two, providing the united states or other international assistance to help the russian federation ensure the accurate accounting and security of all of its tactical and nuclear weapons. so, mr. president, i'm prepared, if that language doesn't satisfy folks, let's go aittle further. i'm happy to do that. but we're not going to do it in a way that precludes us from going to the very negotiations that you want to have it just doesn't make sense. not to mention the fact that it puts the entire treaty back into negotiating play. who knows how long it will be. the estimates i have from the negotiating team could take two years, three years. we've already been a whole year without inspections, a whole year of not knowing what they're doing. ly talk tomorrow in the security briefing about the impact

it states -- quote -- "the treaty between the russian federation and the united states of america on the reduction and limitation of strategic offensive arms signed in prague on april 8, 2010, can operate and be viable only if the united states of america refrains from developing its missile defense capabilities quantitatively or qualitatively. that, mr. president, is the russian unilateral statement. russian foreign minister lavrov stated that the treaty contained -- quote -- "legally binding linkage." "legally binding linkage between strategic offensive and strategic defensive weapons." then he went on, the treaty and all qualifications it contains are valid only upon the levels which are now present in the sphere of strategic defensive systems. to me, those statements seem very clear. the negotiators have given in and they have allowed limitations on our missile defense capabilities. i have no doubt that russia will threaten to withdraw from the treaty should the united states expand its current nuclear capabilities. there should be no problem in removing the language in the pream

treaty does nothing to submit or reduce the russian federation stockpile of strategic arms, ignores thehousands of tactical weapons in the russian arsenal and contains an important concession electing missile defense to strategic arms. we had to rush this treatyo according to the logic of the administration because it had become an important component of the effort to reset the bilateral relationship with the russian federation. it wasia brought up for debate prematurely because it was the first up in a predetermined arms-control agenda. the senate's constitutional rola of advice and consent became an inconvenient impediment. the debate over the mccain amendment to strike the preamble of the treaty was instructed.he the language in the preamble concerning missile defense is harmful to our foreign policy because ofil how it will be viewed, not by our president by hide how it will be viewed bype our allies in europe and by the russians. theth russian government opposed the bush administration's plan toen place 10 silo-based missils in poland and a fixed radar t installation in the czech r

the united states will welcome steps by the russian federation to develop a fundamentally stratigic posture that no longer views robust stratigic defensive capabilities as undermining the overall stratigic balance and stands ready to cooperate with the russian federation on stratigic defensive capabilities as long as it is aimed at fostering and no way con strains the defensive capabilitiesies of both sides. and, finally, the united states is committed to improving united states stratigic defensive capabilities both quantitatively and qualitatively during the period that the new start treaty is in effect. such improvements are consistent with the treaty. this is language that senator demint proposed that is adopted in the resolution that clearly -- that makes very clear that missle defense is not affected by the treaty. the presiding officer: the senator's time has expired. mrs. shaheen: thank you very much. mr. kyl: thank you, madam president. the presiding officer: the senator from arizona. mr. kyl: thank you, madam president. i had hoped to be able to respond to some of the things that t
