NATO Hails "Spirit Of Cooperation"
Brussels (AFP) June 6, 2000 - NATO on
Tuesday hailed the "spirit of cooperation"
in a proposal by Russian President Vladimir
Putin for the EU and NATO to join forces
with Moscow on a common anti-missile shield.
"We welcome his comments," said a NATO
spokesman. "They show a spirit of
cooperation on arms control issues and
concerning the threat of weapoons of
mass destruction."
He noted, however, that Putin had
provided "few details" of his proposal.
After talks with Italian Prime Minister
Giuliano Amato in Italy Monday, Putin
called on the European Union and NATO
to join forces with Moscow and set up a
joint anti-missile shield.
"This will avoid creating problems linked to
an imbalance in the equilibrium of forces
and ensure 100 percent the security of all
European countries, with the obvious
involvement of our American partners,"
Putin told a Rome press conference.
"We have asked the Italian government to
think about Russia's proposal" and discuss
it with its European collegues, he added.
"We know that many in Europe are
concerned about their security and what
will happen to the 1972 ABM (anti-ballistic
missile) treaty. We share the same view,"
Putin said.
US Defense Secretary William Cohen,
commenting on Putin's proposal, said, "It's
certainly a step forward to say there is a
missile threat, which the president of
Russia now recognizes."
