Without going through a lot of detail, the issue of ownership of the land area occupied by the Nevada Test Site, and for that matter very large sections of Nevada and Utah, is very complex (going back to the Ruby Valley Treaty) and in our eyes has been resolved.

The European Union and Russia have an identical viewpoint. We have condemned any potential revision of the ABM treaty, believing that such a revision will involve a risk of proliferation that will be very dangerous for the future.
Jacques Chirac
By signing this treaty ... we showed once again with whom we will build our future. Russia is our most reliable partner and ally.
Islam Karimov

Iran is fully committed to its NPT ((non-proliferation treaty) responsibilities.
Gholamreza Aghazadeh
Manifesto commitments mean nothing unless they are followed by action to deliver them. Despite progress at the EU and the Commonwealth last year, the UK is failing to use its influence at the UN to push for tighter controls on the international arms trade. The UK started out as one of the leaders behind the idea of the treaty but has since failed to show leadership at the UN to make it a reality.
Phil Bloomer
A country with peaceful intent would fully comply with its Nuclear Non-Proliferation Treaty commitments, not threaten to withdraw from them. We agree with the EU and a growing majority of the board that the time has come to report Iran's non-compliance to the UN Security Council.
Greg Schulte
Iran's withdrawal from the Nuclear Nonproliferation Treaty would be a protest against America and its allies' blackmail.
Hossein Shariatmadari
Their transparency and cooperation in resolving this matter is a strong example of how states should respond in complying with their obligations under the Non-Proliferation Treaty.
Richard Boucher
The way it's being interpreted today, where everyone has a right to get within several days of having an arsenal force of weapons-usable material, turns the treaty on its head.
Henry Sokolski
What we need now is a Treaty of the World not a Treaty of Rome.
Bernie Ecclestone
The WIPO is the world's premier organization for establishing norms for the protection of IP. In the patent field, its Patent Cooperation Treaty (PCT) permits an applicant to file a single patent application that can mature into a patent application in every designated member PCT country around the globe. This represents considerable savings for applicants filing in numerous countries.
Michael Kirk
Millions of women continue to suffer from violence, discrimination and other abuse in societies that fail to protect their rights both in law and in practice. If the United States fails to take this treaty seriously, how can we expect the same from other countries with little respect for women's rights?
Jumana Musa
I don't think that it's (the constitution) dead. We must look forward, and I believe most of the people in Europe understand that we need a new treaty.
Matti Vanhanen
If we do this deal, ask how we will avoid offering a similar one to Brazil or Argentina if they decide on nuclear weapons acquisition, or our treaty ally South Korea.
Robert Gallucci
Bush needs this treaty. The U.S. has no energy to deal with North Korea militarily.
Yan Xuetong
We are now at the end of one phase where the Islamic republic was building trust, going beyond its Non-Proliferation Treaty commitments and cooperating within the framework of the additional protocol.
Gholam Hossein Elham
It is clearly time for the U.S. to honor its treaty agreement with Canada, and to end these illegal duties that continue to harm American consumers.
Susan Petniunas
Judicial action might simply encourage congressmen to run to court any time they disagreed with presidential action [on a treaty or other foreign relations issue] or were on the losing end of a piece of legislation.
John Bates
Condoleezza Rice may come and visit Bucharest sometime at the beginning of December to sign a bilateral treaty regarding military facilities for the Pentagon in Romania.
Traian Basescu
The destruction of the 1972 ABM Treaty will result in the annihilation of the whole structure of strategic stability and create prerequisites for a new arms race including one in outer space.
Sergei Ivanov
You never pay tax twice as long as we have a treaty with the foreign government.
Gerald Dagostino
Phase one of CoNE is barely underway, phases two, three, four, five, six, seven and eight are still to come and there are 17 years to go on the tax treaty. There will be many, many, more CoNE phase proposals for the Planning Commission to review and approve so Mr. Nelson will have to step aside many, many more times.
Wayne Asselin
Regarding the free movement of capital, there seems to be no violation of the treaty.
Oliver Drewes
By the stroke of a pen, President Clinton is rejecting the clear advice of the U.S. Senate and research by his own Energy Department showing conclusively that the treaty would cost American families billions of dollars and millions of jobs.
Connie Holmes
The Administration should never have walked away from the Kyoto Treaty. Global warming is real and it is here today. The facts aren't the issue. The policy is the issue. I think the Administration's policy on global warming is dead wrong.
Ted Kulongoski
The breakthrough agreement with North Korea not only diffuses a two-year stalemate but holds out the hope that Pyongyang will return to its international treaty obligations.
Pamela Falk
The collapse of the ABM Treaty would, therefore, undermine the entirety of disarmament agreements concluded over the last 30 years.
Igor Ivanov
Philippine authorities are currently investigating this crime and we shall pursue this matter with vigor and in accordance with our laws and treaty obligations.
Alberto Romulo
With Versailles (the treaty) in 1919, we viewed the Arabs as largely tribal, bedouin, backward. They couldn't govern themselves... the French, British, provided the stable government that allowed commercial transactions.... As a consequence of our lack of confidence in them, we've communicated that democracy is a vital, difficult option for everyone but them.
Bob Kerrey
The treaty is this: I screw you and you let me screw you.
Oscar Campos
With the Maastricht Treaty, the problem is that we need to decrease public resources in France, so we do not have enough security agents here.
Hubert Astier
I believe that the measures taken by the Chinese government are not accepted under the WTO rules and our trade treaty with China.
Takeo Hiranuma
The North Koreans said that they are willing to dismantle their nuclear weapons as long as there is trust among the parties concerned. They say they are ready to dismantle and go back to the NPT (Non-Proliferation Treaty), allowing the International Atomic Energy Agency to step in, as long as there is trust among parties.
Kantathi Suphamongkhon
The welfare of the planet and its environment is paramount. But what we do, and do equally and evenhandedly, is more difficult to identify. I have no doubt in mind that President Bush is serious in his determination to reexamine the overall issue and that would include reexamining the language of the Kyoto treaty.
Howard Baker
We agreed members of the [Non-Proliferation Treaty] have right [sic] to peaceful nuclear energy.
Ali Larijani
The Makahs are hardly responsible for what somebody else does. The Makah have a clear right (under an 1855 treaty) to hunt gray whales.
Brian Gorman
Deeper debt relief, the Ottawa Treaty on land mines, the global movement for women's rights and protection of the environment -- none of these advances would have happened without NGO ideas and pressure.
Michael Edwards
We have nothing to hide (in our nuclear projects) and continue our commitments within the Nuclear Non-Proliferation Treaty (NPT) but no longer in line within the Additional Protocol of the International Atomic Energy Agency (IAEA).
Javad Vaeidi
In short, it may be said that on paper the obligations to settle international disputes peacefully are now so comprehensive and far-reaching that it is almost impossible for a state to resort to war without violating one or more solemn treaty obligations.
Arthur Henderson
Hurricane Katrina, the Mother Earthers say, is the result of the failed environmental policies of the Bush administration. This disaster is because the United States has not agreed to abide by the Kyoto Treaty protocols. According to those who worship the spinning dirt at the altar of Kyoto, their god, the environment, has exacted justice through Hurricane Katrina.
Scott Thomas
We do not want to create the impression that we are refusing to ratify [the treaty], and we believe we can fully meet our international commitments. But we will not ratify the Energy Charter until it has been amended.
Igor Shuvalov
He has paid all the applicable taxes, including U.S. capital gains taxes, ... There is a treaty. So while Jon Corzine is paying taxes here, Japanese investors who are investing in the U.S. are paying their taxes in Japan. And apparently the leadership in both countries felt there was a significant public policy reason to have that regime.
Tom Shea
They say, 'we're within the treaty, we're within our rights'.
Daryl Kimball
Certain information that was provided to us gave indications and are giving indications that some of the (treaty) principles ... have been violated.
Oliver Drewes
We share the tenets of the Energy Charter Treaty, and will be ready to ratify it after we have coordinated previously agreed amendments with our partners.
Igor Shuvalov
We perfectly realize that under the Non-Proliferation Treaty (NPT), Iran has every right for enrichment.
Alexander Rumyantsev
There is between sleep and us something like a pact, a treaty with no secret clauses, and according to this convention it is agreed that, far from being a dangerous, bewitching force, sleep will become domesticated and serve as an instrument of our power to act. We surrender to sleep, but in the way that the master entrusts himself to the slave who serves him.
Maurice Blanchot
It will be a dangerous step. Very unjustified. I am appealing to Mr. Netanyahu to remain here to continue discussions and to sign a treaty as soon as possible.
Ahmed Tibi
All told, I consider my constitution a child on the verge of death, from which you can transplant some organs into the Treaty of Nice.
Giuliano Amato
Turkey is the party of all international agreements and conventions for disarmament, control of weapons and prevention of proliferation of mass destruction weapons. Turkey is also party of Non-Proliferation Treaty (NPT) of International Atomic Energy Agency (IAEA). IAEA is aware of Turkey's activities to benefit from nuclear energy for peaceful means.
Namik Tan
The ratification of this treaty is a true landmark for environmental health, ... By targeting an entire class of chemicals for global phaseout, it moves us a giant step forward in protecting people and the planet.
Monica Moore
Why should the entire architecture of agreements in nuclear disarmament and nonproliferation, and its cornerstone, the 1972 ABM treaty, be put under threat?
Alexander Yakovenko
It does share the (Clinton) formula in that essentially, the North Koreans, for their breaking out of the Nuclear Nonproliferation Treaty and breaking their agreement with the Clinton administration, are going to get a long list of goodies.
Gary Schmitt
When will this government learn that respectful partnership requires a willingness to engage in constructive dialogue with the treaty partner, not ignoring them at their peril?
