When U.S. Secretary of State Hillary Clinton met with Russian Prime Minister Vladimir Putin on Friday, he told her that in order for Russia to fully cooperate with the U.S., his country would have to be granted membership into the World Trade Organization. During their first meeting since she was appointed Secretary of State, Putin told Clinton, “We have been negotiating this issue for 17 years now.” She explained that the U.S. was committed to his request and are looking to help facilitate it.
