Bill Clinton: “No. It's going to be a happy day because we're going to be the first country to sign the Comprehensive Nuclear Test Ban…”

“No. It's going to be a happy day because we're going to be the first country to sign the Comprehensive Nuclear Test Ban Treaty. So it will be a milestone day for the United States and for the world. And that issue will--and then what we now have to do to fol- low up on it is what I intend to talk about and will overshadow everything else. I believe that things are proceeding reasonably well now in Iraq, based on what I know today. I feel good about that. I think the United States should pay its U.N. dues. We're going to pay our dues this year, and we'll start to pay our debts on a regular basis until we get our debt paid back. I think we ought to, and I've always felt that, as you know. And our position on the future of the U.N. and the Secretary- General, a man for whom I have great personal respect, has been clear for many months now. So nothing's changed there. That's not new, not a surprise. And I expect it to be a good day.”
