Nobody seems to believe that we can go much beyond the end of this year to complete the negotiations.

Keith Rockwell

Negotiations have fallen dramatically short of the kinds of commitments that would ensure a sustainable future for our planet and the people who live on it.

Claude Martin

The lesson is those things have to be negotiated in private, but once you finish those negotiations, all those things have to be public, and that wasn't done in Toronto.

Robert Poole

We hope the negotiations can be continued. A cutoff at this moment is not an option.

Bernard Bot

Information on direct negotiations with Mladic and information that he is located in a town in the Serbian heartland are absolutely untrue.

Rasim Ljajic

We don't think (the text) will be available until Sunday, they have to finish negotiations.

Nicholas Haysom

We waited too long to resolve this, ... Negotiations went sideways, and then up and down.

Jeff Koons

The other factor that will play into this will be international trade negotiations.

Mark Halverson

He thinks negotiations should be constructive, and he is ready to be constructive.

Yevgeny Primakov

Negotiations, in my eyes, have gone backwards. Dramatically backwards.

Jeff Brooks

Like any company that's going into negotiations, we have made plans for any possibility. That said, we can't make airplanes without our team members there to build them.

Chaz Bickers

For us that has to mean the Government has to return to the Good Friday Agreement as the baseline document in any negotiations we have.

Mark Durkan

Price (in the Swiss system) doesn't matter, because it's set by these negotiations.

Uwe Reinhardt

We welcome the government's willingness to resume negotiations.

Bud Perrone

The negotiations are progressing well and we expect them to be released in the coming hours.

Nasser Ba'oum

We are outside all of the negotiations these two days. They want to pass the constitution without us.

Saleh Al mutlaq

Whatever comes out of direct negotiations between the parties as a result of negotiations and debate between the parties is always the best way to get into the details and get the best results.

Gilead Sher

There is only one reason for these continuing negotiations -- and that is to maximize the degree of consensus in the council. We are determined to bring this whole negotiation to closure in the next 24 hours.

Jeremy Greenstock

We are looking at very, very difficult negotiations in the days ahead.

Munir Akram

It's hard to characterize negotiations, but there are issues that we have not agreed on. We're just going to move ahead and see if we can reach an agreement. If not, we'll analyze our options and move forward.

Tom Condon

The final outcomes of the Dubai negotiations are extremely disappointing, with the results akin to achieving a half loaf of bread, not well baked.

Clifton Curtis

Our position in the framework of international negotiations is to arrive at a convention which bans unsafe munitions and establishes very clear rules on their use in populated areas.

Jürg Streuli

We need to get back to negotiations and avoid the escalation.

Mark Gwozdecky

We will be meeting with the Chinese again next month and will be consulting with them soon on the location and exact date of the next round of negotiations.

David Spooner

The real duties of an ambassador are to enter into or follow negotiations between his own government and that of the country to which he is accredited.

David Bruce

The RMT should return to the negotiations and resolve any issues they have by discussion.

Allan Ramsay

The focus here would be the state of play in the WTO negotiations after Hong Kong and Africa?s common position.

Mukhisa Kituyi

It's giving us added leverage to use in our discussions and negotiations, but it's not a foregone conclusion that it will be implemented.

Claudia Piccinin

One can haggle about what we expect from these talks, but negotiations with Turkey must start on Oct 3.

Cemil Cicek

To be deeply committed to negotiations, to be opposed to a particular war or military action, is not only considered unpatriotic, it also casts serious doubt on one's manhood.

Myriam Miedzian

During these three months, the prime minister has to make a heroic attempt to complete the negotiations with the Palestinians ... and to initiate early elections.

Yossi Sarid

We think it's highly inappropriate that they would announce a raid at this time that we are going through contract negotiations.

Peter Fiske

The negotiations are really now on the edge of a cliff and it will take a concerted effort to get the round back on track.

Mark Vaile

We are entering teacher negotiations here, so I will have to go to the board to find out what to put in for salaries.

Susan Fisher

We stand for negotiations and emphasize that issues of this kind cannot be referred to the UN Security Council just because of imagination about (Iran's) intentions.

Gholamreza Ansari

It is actually a new chapter in expansion negotiations.

Chancellor Wolfgang Schüssel

We are disappointed, but hardly surprised, that the company has as much as admitted that it has no interest in further direct negotiations. Management has been largely unresponsive to our attempts to negotiate in earnest for a fair contract.

Roger Cox

The law got in the way of the negotiations. With this law there will be nothing.

Rene Ortiz

He's the most talented diplomat in the Iranian government. He could make a difference in the nuclear negotiations.

Karim Sadjadpour

The proposal was the result of good faith negotiations between the company and the union bargaining committees.

Joe Stout

During these negotiations, there has been a lot of discussion about pensions. What hasn't received much discussion is the concept of balance.

Jerry Calhoun

My biggest concern is that it would be a divisive factor in the negotiations.

Peggy Hicks

I was confident it would end without anyone being killed. I could tell that the negotiations were getting better. He seemed to realize what he had done.

Lee Hunter

We were delighted to find out that here was someone in the US who was exploring the same themes as us, in terms of diaspora, culture, cultural negotiations and identity.

Gurinder Chadha

We've been too busy to be involved in any meaningful settlement negotiations, so there's nothing ongoing at this time.

Hank Barry

Dennis has made valuable contributions to the organization and to me since he came aboard. He goes to all of the Dodgers and Angels games out in Southern California, and also is very helpful in contract negotiations.

Jerry Reinsdorf

Grove Farm is constantly exploring new ways to meet new challenges, and we are pleased that our negotiations with Costco have proved successful.

Warren Haruki

They want their due rights and government need to begin political negotiations instead of military operations.

Asma Jahangir

That is a very good outcome to the negotiations.

Thomas Steg

Speight ... made them look pretty silly. They had to back down and back down again in the negotiations, and it seems their patience has run out.

Geoff Thompson

We are grateful for the loyalty and confidence demonstrated by our customers, ... But we've said all along the risk of volume being diverted would increase the closer we got to contract expiration, and diversion will accelerate if there's no agreement soon. It's even more important the company and the union conclude these negotiations in a timely manner.

Scott Davis

Corporations from both countries are conducting pragmatic negotiations on the construction of a pipeline to carry Siberian oil to China.

Sergei Razov

By Sunday, we will conclude the negotiations.

Ahmed Qureia

Negotiations are now going on with the companies, hoping they can voluntarily give up their activities before 2020.

Nazir Foead

We want to point out that the bill is one thing and the free trade negotiations are something else.

Manuel Chiriboga

We don't tax British diplomats in Washington, and we don't expect our diplomats to be taxed here either. We had negotiations for over a year on this issue and couldn't come to an agreement.

Derrick Roberts

Our negotiators worked aggressively for more than two years, ... Now the most important people involved in these negotiations, our members, will have the final say.

Tom Buffenbarger

In these negotiations, Russia holds all the cards. They have the energy, and the U.S. needs it.

Roland Nash

In the logic of the current negotiations, market access will determine whether there will be a virtuous cycle leading to a positive result, and that depends fundamentally on the European Union.

Celso Amorim

We did whatever we could. But as you know after three years of negotiations we left empty-handed.

Abbas Araghchi

The best we can realistically aim at is agreeing to start negotiations for the (period) after 2012.

Stavros Dimas

During the negotiations we will continue to monitor progress closely and the European Commission will not hesitate to recommend the suspension of negotiations if the efforts.

Olli Rehn

The negotiations lasted from last July until 10:30 a.m. this morning.

Nick Burns

There was no breakthrough, but at least the negotiations were not disastrous.

Danny Yatom

We're profiting from the negotiations. As long as he keeps scoring the important goals, I don't get so nervous that he hasn't signed with us.

Felix Magath

We're still in negotiations. And you never know how long these kinds of things can take.

Debra Galloway

It's a good sign they're going back into negotiations, ... That's where they're going to reach an agreement, not in the courtroom.

Frank Larkin

There are people disappointed out there. We thought the last five and a half years of the ESOP would make a difference in these contract negotiations.

Herb Hunter

Everybody's an expert, and everybody's got an opinion. It takes a lot of calm heads and negotiations to make things work well.

Norm Jarvis

When (negotiations) broke last night, everybody made sure everyone had everyone's phone numbers.

Jon Austin

The key issues to watch from here would be the negotiations and litigations with other DRAM suppliers.

Mark Edelstone

They constantly violate our contract, so we're not going to allow them to be part of any multi-employer negotiations.

Peter Ward

We cannot understand how ... people here can prolong negotiations.

Werner Wallert

These matters cannot easily be resolved by the parties and this is causing difficulties in the negotiations process.

Gaynor Kast

Negotiations are under way and I do hope they can finish before the year end.

Alexander Medvedev

Making agricultural markets more accessible is the most fundamental reform that needs to emerge from the Doha round of WTO negotiations.

Will Martin

We have been preparing for expedited negotiations. We continue to meet with NWA management and believe we can reach a negotiated settlement, but only if management doesn't overreach in negotiations.

Will Holman

Intense negotiations have continued late last evening, then  resumed again at 9:30 a.m., ... The current talks are intense.

Eric Rabe

Our last set of negotiations with this board resulted in a strike that lasted six weeks but this time it's anyone's guess how long it could be.

Emily Noble

We still have negotiations to do. Our goal is to reach an agreement as soon as possible.

Edward O'donnell

We're asking that he be removed from negotiations. He's not a valid negotiator.

Eduardo Torres

We just received the document and are reviewing it. Some of it we agree with, and some of it we don't, but we aren't going to discuss the negotiations publicly.

Edward Skyler

I cannot imagine the US will not find some way to offer some assistance just because it allows them leverage to shape the negotiations to some degree. And more so the Europeans, who would be even less willing to totally cut off aid.

Edward Sayre

I know the St. Louis team and fans wanted me to stay, but [management] didn't try hard to keep me -- that's what I felt in the negotiations.

Edgar Renteria

I can't confirm any elements of negotiations. All I can say is it appears (Bloomberg) has documentation.

Edd Snyder

We should maintain the momentum of the negotiations, rather than lower the ambitious target set by the Doha talks.
