Like the Security Council, I take at face value their promise to offer full cooperation.

I think I can feel a new spirit and good cooperation from the Iraqi side.

In light of this experience, that is, the absence of full cooperation by Iraq, it must regrettably be recorded again that the commission is not able to conduct the substantive disarmament work mandated to it by the Security Council and, thus, to give the council the assurances it requires with respect to Iraq's prohibited weapons programs.

For Vietnam to step forward [on security cooperation], they have to step forward in two directions. They don't want to be roped into a US containment policy towards China…. They want the US to remain engaged [in Asia], but they don't want to get too close.

Only through international cooperation can we effectively address the common security problems facing all countries.

The President's plan to privatize Social Security would actually take away guaranteed benefits and put the promise of a secure retirement in jeopardy.
