This begs the question: What does Obama do if the Russian parliament DOESN’T approve START?
My bet: he declares it was such a good treaty for America that the Russian government deemed it too weak for Russia..
And announces that the US will abide by the treaty even if the Russians don't ratify it.
That would be my take too.
“It’s just too good a deal for the U. S. for the Russians to accept.”
Bull! Even if Russia does sign on to the deal in time, it’s of note that they aren’t cramming it through in a matter of days without considering the ramifications.
Exactly.....Russia see’s what kinds of BS Treaty they can get Obama to sign and they know want to re-negotiate knowing they can get much more.............
Pray that the Dumas does not ratify START. Then it comes back to the US and we can dump it. This prez is an idiot, and we were snookered. This is a 1980’s type treaty, that Reagan would have dumped quick. We need to be able to expand our mobile launch capacity and not be hampered. The russians have the TOPOL mobile being deployed, and they may love this “treaty”.
