Is this any time for a summit?

Article Abstract:

Critics of President Bill Clinton question the meeting between the presidents of Russia and the US. Clinton faces the risk of impeachment hearings and may want to show his effectiveness in Moscow. US officials believe the trip will be similar to a "high-wire act," as these two highly-exposed leaders meet without much support.
