Obama to allow Russians to inspect US Nuclear sites, count missiles & warheads

Un-be-lievable…

Meanwhile Russia refuses to cooperate with us on the Iran issue…

Russia and the United States have tentatively agreed to a weapons inspection program that would allow Russians to visit nuclear sites in America to count missiles and warheads.

The plan, which Fox News has learned was agreed to in principle during negotiations, would constitute the most intrusive weapons inspection program the U.S. has ever accepted.

Foreign Minister Sergey Lavrov, who met with Secretary of State Hillary Clinton, said publicly Tuesday that the two nations have made “considerable” progress toward reaching agreement on a new strategic arms treaty.

The 1991 Strategic Arms Reduction Treaty, or START, expires in December and negotiators have been racing to reach agreement on a successor.

Clinton said the U.S. would be as transparent as possible.

“We want to ensure that every question that the Russian military or Russian government asks is answered,” she said, calling missile defense “another area for deep cooperation between our countries.”

I don’t know what to say…

    I see no mention of the Russian's allowing us the same privelege, it wouldn't surprise me if it doesn't exist. Obama is willing to give away everything for nothing to assuage what he perceives as our nation's "guilt". The sinking feeling gets worse...

    what most likely will happen is that putin will say that the US can inspect russian facilities, but will then be evasive on dates, times, and other specifics. obama will then apologize and tell putin to "go ahead and take poland, while you're at it"
