По поводу слов Буша


>>Сегодня видел цитату от Буша что он хочет именно уничтожить боеголовки. Вот ссылка:
>
>>...Bush said he intended to destroy warheads removed from their missiles under the cuts. "We're talking about reducing and destroying the number of warheads to get down to ... significantly lower levels," Bush said...

Прочитав весть текст встречи Буша и Путина со школьниками, я подумал, что слова Буша были либо экспромтом, либо шуткой:

Окончательно я в этом убедился посмотрев на сегодняшние комментарии Washington Post по этому поводу с цитатой Кондолизы Райс:

http://www.washingtonpost.com/wp-dyn/articles/A37761-2001Nov15.html

...Another student quickly reached the crux of the issue, asking whether Bush meant to destroy the weapons or merely to store them. Bush responded that he was talking about "reducing and destroying"
warheads, only to have his staff later clarify that the administration had not decided what it would do with the warheads...

...In his remarks this morning, Bush appeared to commit himself to destroying the nuclear warheads eliminated when he reduces the American arsenal. "We are talking about reducing and destroying the number of warheads to get down to specific levels, from significant higher levels today to significantly lower levels tomorrow," he said.

But Rice said later that only "a number of them" will be destroyed and suggested others would be stored. "What the president was referring to is, we will not have these warheads near the places at which they could be deployed," she said...

То есть все обстоит именно так, как я и написал в своем комментарии.

С наилучшими пожеланиями,
