Do you trust the Russians? I don't trust the Russians. Those who think they are making the world safer by refusing to support the programs should remember the ancient Latin adage, ``If you want peace, prepare for war.'' That has never been more applicable than in regard to this program. Madam Chair, this amendment is vital to maintaining deterrence and peace. I would urge my colleagues to support it. I might point out that the Russians are under the perception that this is a strategic imperative from their perspective. So from my perspective, let's remove that misconception and vote in favor of this amendment.
