Putin tells Bush `no' on Iraq aid

Russian rebuffs president on Iran too

WASHINGTON -- President Bush was unable Saturday to win from Russian President Vladimir Putin a commitment to aid U.S. forces in Iraq or a pledge to end Russian assistance to Iran's nuclear power program.

While the two leaders underscored what they termed a close diplomatic and personal relationship, the meeting at Camp David nevertheless pointed up sharp differences between the nations and Bush's ongoing difficulty in rallying world support behind U.S. efforts in Iraq.

Putin, who recently said that problems in securing and rebuilding postwar Iraq validated his decision not to support the U.S.-led war there, said Saturday that Russia wants to see Iraq returned to stability quickly.

But he made clear that Russia would not contribute troops or money to the effort unless the United Nations is allowed to play a much more prominent role than Bush has offered it.

The Russian president, ending an overnight visit with Bush at Camp David, also rebuffed U.S. entreaties to stop helping Iran build a nuclear reactor. The U.S. insists that oil-rich Iran wants the reactor so it can develop a nuclear bomb, but Putin has maintained that Russia's $800 million contract in Iran is not aiding a weapons program.
