(Reuters) - Russia will not renew a decades-old agreement with Washington on dismantling nuclear and chemical weapons when it expires next year, Deputy Foreign Minister Sergei Ryabkov was quoted as saying on Wednesday.
The death of the 1991 agreement, which had been renewed twice, is the latest in a series of hitches in relations between the United States and Russia and casts doubt on the future of the much-vaunted "reset" in relations between the Cold War-era foes.
"The basis of the program is an agreement of 1991 which, by virtue of the time when it was conceived, the way it was worked out and prepared, does not meet very high standards. The agreement doesn't satisfy us, especially considering new realities," Interfax quoted him as saying. . .

Timed right before the foreign policy debate. Somebody is helping...
That is of no concern to Baraq Hussein Obama. He will still work to reduce our own nuclear arsenal down to 300 and ultimately down to zero.
Another triumph for Hillary. She’s a wonder.
I guess the “All hold hands and sing Kumbaya” foreign policy ain’t workin’ out too well, eh?
Yes, he’ll be more “flexible” after the election. That means he’ll be able to bend over further.
We will not be more “flexible” after the election (relay that to Vladimir).
No?!!
A bit unexpected..../s
Romney will increase defense spending and prevent the rebirth of the Soviet Union.
I really don’t get this story.
What can the Russian hope to get an edge on?
They like 0?
They like R?
Maybe all that training I received back in the ‘80s could come in handy after all... REFORGER et al... Always was just a little miffed to have learned French and German only to never use it in the field. Ended up with a crash course in Spanish for use way down south of here. Once had a waiter in a Mexican restaurant ask me what Spanish I knew and I think it nearly scared most of the wait staff to death... Things like “drop your weapons and you will be allowed to live” and stuff like that. A benefit of that encounter was that from then own they always remembered my “usual” drink and entree. They just bring it to my table...

Why should Russia renew an agreement when the Bamalamadingdong has already said he is cutting our nuclear deterrent.
Russians aren’t stupid.
That can’t possibly be correct. Hillary gave the Russians a big “Reset Button” from Staples and everything.

Sorry about the double post... Tiny android keyboard.
If you are rooting for Gay Marriage or are collecting a check and Obamaphone than you just don’t care. We have to GOTV!

NOW YOU KNOW WHY OBAMA IS NICKNAMED “ZERO”.
