Henry Kissinger: “America's initiatives and its integrative approach will spell the difference between stability and calamity.”

If one negotiates a freeze of the existing situation, one has thereby legitimized a Korean military capability.

One's effort should be not to break up Russia, but to retain Russia in the system in some fashion.

Russia is in my view not a strong country. Russia is a weak country with a large military establishment and a very determined leader.

I think we need a strong State Department.
