Bush nominee says START talks to resume soon
Ronald Lehman told the Senate Foreign Relations Committee that strategic nuclear arms talks with the Soviet Union should resume fairly soon but a U.S. Soviet treaty on land and sea based missiles and bombers may not be concluded this year. Lehman, Bush's nominee to head the Arms Control and Disarmament Agency, said progress hinges on addressing new weapons technologies and cheating safeguards. He noted the need for a review period before Geneva negotiations resume with Soviet officials in Moscow. The State Department planned to propose a resumption date when Secretary Baker meets Eduard Shevardnadze.
