Do you guys think NATO and Russia will ever come to terms over the Missile Defense Shield? I'd prefer that we reestablish strong ties with Russia and remove these MDS's (I mean seriously, is it really that important, enough to create this quasi havoc with Russia?). Bringing back Cold War policies is not healthy for anyone. I can only hope that this and other meetings between NATO and Russia will end on positive notes.
