Title- A Big Step
Op-Ed in liberal Folha de S. Paulo (7-10) by former Brazilian
President and current President of the Brazilian Senate Jose Sarney
states: "The national [Brazilian] media did not realize the
importance of the deal between Presidents Obama and Medvedev for
humanity's history and survival....The U.S. President is trying
to....redo what Bush destroyed......Obama proposed a new kind of
relationship with Russia and with humbleness confessed that his
country cannot handle alone the problems of humanity's
survival.....Unfortunately, the deal does not foresee an end to
studies on 'clear and pure fusion bombs'....but it is progress, we
went from inertia to resuming the path of complete
disarmament....The only way out is for a total intolerance of
nuclear arms and to ban them from the Earth."
