Abstract

IN FEBRUARY 1990, REPRESENTATIVES OF THE UNITED STATES AND THE SOVIET UNION MADE PROGRESS ON THE START TREATY DURING TALKS IN MOSCOW. IN ADDITION TO START, THE TWO SIDES FOCUSED ON THEIR SEPARATE APPROACHES TO THE ISSUE OF GERMAN UNIFICATION. THEY ALSO DISCUSSED PRESIDENT BUSH'S PROPOSAL FOR DEEPER CUTS IN U.S. AND SOVIET TROOPS IN EUROPE.
