More appeasement. I bet that any deal by Russia to help us with Iran that will be made also requires us to not go forward with NMD and to deny Ukraine of NATO membership
“For example, the Bush administration had sought Moscow’s cooperation on pressing Iran not to develop nuclear weapons — but simultaneously angered Moscow by pushing to deploy a missile defense system near Russia’s borders to shoot down any missiles fired by Iran.”
So now we will leave the Soviet Union... err Russia alone so they can help Iran develop their nuke faster....
Oh, and we will de-fund and dismantle the missile defense system.
That is good diplomacy. barf
