Putin Says He and Bush Reached 'High Level' of Trust at Summit Russian Pres. Vladimir Putin Monday, June 18, 2001 Email this Article MOSCOW — Russian President Vladimir Putin said Monday he and President Bush do not agree on the security threats their countries face, but reached "a very high level" of trust during their weekend summit. In a 2-hour interview with American reporters, Putin said the American president was a "very attentive listener" during the meeting in Slovenia and that Bush was interested in discussing the big picture of global problems. He also said Bush was "a nice person to talk to." Putin said he and Bush agreed at their meeting Saturday to work together to identify security threats. "Here we so far do not have a common position," Putin said, referring to security threats. He repeated that America should not move to abandon the 1972 Anti-Ballistic Missile treaty, saying it would have serious consequences for other treaties governing nuclear weapons. However, Putin said: "We are satisfied with the kind of partner we have in President Bush." During the wide-ranging question-and-answer session in the Kremlin library, Putin also said Russia does not deliver weapons to Iran that the United States or Israel could consider a threat. He also denied that Russia helped spread weapons of mass destruction. Putin defended his policies in Chechnya, saying he would not allow the area to be used as a place to launch terrorist attacks against Russia. He also addressed his past in the KGB, saying his work in the Soviet security forces had given him a special ability to work with people and absorb large amounts of information. foxnews.com
