Obama and Medvedev - Talks to reduce Nuclear Weapons
Tuesday, November 17, 2009
President Obama met with Russian President Dmitry Medvedev on Sunday, and the talk was all about reducing nuclear stockpiles. They met after the Asia-Pacific Economic Cooperation summit which wrapped up on Sunday in Singapore. The goal is to reduce stockpiles by year's end. Also the Strategic Arms Reduction Treaty expires on December 5th, 2009, so both Presidents will come to another agreement on a renewed treaty. Both claim that they would love to have a nuclear free world, but with terrorism prominent in the world news today, no one expects a nuclear free world actually happen soon. But the goal is to reduce the warheads between the two countries of Russia and the United States. Both agree that this is a step in the right direction.
The Presidents topics of discussion not only was about nuclear weapons and warheads. They discussed the START treaty, along with Iran and Afghanistan, just to mention a few topics that were discussed.
