Russia Calls For Conference On Treaty
Russia has requested an emergency conference to discuss the Conventional Forces in Europe (CFE) Treaty.


Russia has requested an emergency conference to discuss the Conventional Forces in Europe (CFE) Treaty, its foreign ministry said on Monday.
"Russia, on May 28, approached the Netherlands, the depositary of the Conventional Forces in Europe Treaty, with a request to call an emergency conference on June 12-15 in Vienna," the foreign ministry said in a statement.

President Vladimir Putin last month said Russia would suspend compliance with the treaty because NATO signatories were not respecting it.

No. I just thought the pic looked so cool. And I figured that it was about as useful as the immigration threads.

Sorry.

Why don;t you find a link to the proposed UN Treaty top make international arms and ammunition trade for difficult, and maybe Russia supports this?

Russia, support the ATT?

I doubt it....

But I would spin the story so that Putin would be "lukewarm" about ATT because it would reduce his range time due to shortages of ammo... :dude:

Will that work?
