President sees Boutros-Ghali before UN appearance
Russian President Boris Yeltsin arrived in New York on Sunday
(25/9) for a five-day official visit, during which he will hold a
summit with President Bill Clinton and address the UN General
Assembly. He had an early meeting with the Secretary General of
the United Nations, Boutros Boutros-Ghali. Clinton and Yeltsin are
expected to expand the US-Russian security relationship at next
week's summit and pledge to play a joint role in Europe's future.
Clinton also was expected to press Yeltsin to act on some problems
that have long nagged Washington. These include Moscow's
insistence on arms sales to Iran and its resistance to elements of
several arms accords, like those dealing with conventional and
chemical arms. Yeltsin also is expected to promote investment
opportunities, dismissing critics who say Russia is risky because
of organized crime, conflicting legislation and unpredictable
taxes. Later in the week, he will visit Seattle, where he will
tour a Boeing plant, take a turn on a yacht and spend time with an
American family.
