H.R. 4022 - Russian Anti-Ship Missile Nonproliferation Act of 2000
(Rohrabacher (R) California and 24 cosponsors)
The security of the American people is the first priority in our relationship with Russia. The Administration closely monitors Russian arms sales, as well as China's military development, as part of its continuing review of regional stability in the area.
A stable, democratic Russia with a successful market economy will contribute to U.S. national security in many important ways, including reducing the risk of weapons proliferation. Russia's economic stability can best be advanced through a reasonable and considered approach to dealing with Russia's indebtedness.
