...exploring ways to restrict SDI by reaffirming the ABM treaty of 1972. That approach has considerable promise since it is potentially compatible with Reagan's own public statements on SDI. Largely as a result of the quiet urging of British Prime Minister Margaret Thatcher and Secretary of State George Shultz, Reagan has said repeatedly that SDI is a research program being conducted within the bounds of the ABM treaty. The nub of the American end of an offense-defense deal would be for Reagan to repeat that statement once again, only this time in a document co-signed by Gorbachev...

Like Fukuyama, Kagan served in the U.S. State Department (as a speech writer for Secretary of State George Shultz); he now lives in Brussels and is a senior associate at the Carnegie Endowment for International Peace. Best known for the 2003 success Of Paradise and Power: America and Europe in the New World Order, Kagan recently made news as a major influence behind John McCain's most ambitious foreign...
Relations with the U.S. already are excellent, largely because she and President Reagan are cut from the same ideo logical cloth. "She's tough and smart" marvels Secretary of State George Shultz. "She's a great and determined lady who's shown us what leadership is all about " Shultz could not resist adding: "If I were married to her, I'd be sure to have dinner ready when she got home...
