USA: PRESIDENT CLINTON AND BORIS YELTSIN PRESS CONFERENCE
(23 Oct 1995) Russian/Eng/Nat
President Yeltsin, after a summit meeting with President Clinton in New York, announced Monday that Russian troops will participate in the planned international peacekeeping force in Bosnia.
The two leaders addressed a joint news conference:
Boris Yeltsin, announcing agreement on Bosnia, poked fun at reporters who had forecast that the talks would end in failure:
SOUNDBITE:
"This is all due to you because coming from my statement yesterday in the United Nations, and if you looked at press reports, one could see that what you were writing was that today's meeting was going to be a disaster. Now for the first time I can tell you that YOU (the press) are a disaster."

SOUNDBITE:
"Make sure you get the right attribution there."
SUPER CAPTION: President Bill Clinton
Yeltsin confirmed that Russian troops would serve in Bosnia:
SOUNDBITE:
"We agreed today Russian armed forces will participate in these operations, but how they go about doing it is the affair of the military, it is not a question for us two presidents. We have done our tasks."

President Clinton stressed the need for the peacekeeping force to be effective:
SOUNDBITE:
"Our position is that we are going to have an operation that works. We want Russia to be involved in it. We made some progress today consistent with both of our objectives with neither side giving up the things that were most important to it. We made some progress today on that. And we recognize that some of the things that needed to be decided neither of us could in good conscience could decide without giving our military leaders a chance to work through that. So we agreed that this week our military leaders would keep working. That is all I can tell you. The more we say about it the worse it'll be. We are moving towards peace. We are moving towards peace. The first and most important thing is make peace in Bosnia. That has not been done yet. "
SUPER CAPTION: President Bill Clinton
The two leaders, who met at the former home of American wartime President Franklin D. Roosevelt, ended their press conference with an apparent show of unity on the Bosnian issue.

How incredible to look back on this with today's context, after Putin's rein. But, honestly, this should give us hope that the US and Russia don't have to be forever at loggerheads. This geopolitical context was only ten years ago. There's a good chance that we could see this kind of reconciliation and comradery again in the future

I always say the same. Makes no sense for Russia and the US to still be enemies after the Soviet collapse. If Russia had kept that way and befriended europe and the US, more as an ally, things would be far different. Maybe Russia would be part of Nato at some point, removing why it was created and focusing on good relationships between former enemies.

People in the comment section are so shallow, he’s laughing at him, he’s not laughing with him.
Im my opinion Boris Yeltsin was the best Russian president ever! Look at this,they both were laughing, cheering,joking and hugging.there was respect and friendship between them and no tensions between both superpowers.Can you imagine that nowadays between Putin and any US president? That's impossible.It's a pity that nowadays the world is much more dangerous than in those days

The captionists are horrid.
"A declassified U.S. intelligence report assessed that the Ukraine war has cost Russia 315,000 dead and injured troops, or nearly 90% of the personnel it had when the conflict began [...] The report also assessed that Moscow's losses in personnel and armored vehicles to Ukraine's military have set back Russia’s military modernization by 18 years"
