U.S., Russia inch forward on European security issues

Article Abstract:

The US-Russian meeting on European security in the post cold war era did not make much headway and both the parties made conciliatory gestures on the issue of Russia's involvement in NATO's Partnership for Peace and the scope of the Conventional Armed Forces in Europe (CFE) treaty. The joint statement on European security at the end of the summit did not make any mention of the CFE treaty and NATO. It, however, mentioned that the leaders are agreed that the basis of a durable peace must be the integration of European nations into mutually supporting institutions.
