Bill Clinton actually said...

"Cooperation between the U.S. and Russia will be of the greatest import in the twenty-first century for promoting prosperity and strengthening security throughout the world."

"The U.S. wants to be supportive of Russia, wants Russia to succeed, but that such support only makes sense if it's clear that Russia is going forward on reform."

"All violence by all Kosovo Albanian armed groups must cease immediately."

"Russia is important to America."
