Russia was receptive but noncommittal to accept an invitation from NATO to join a missile shield protecting Europe from against an Iranian attack. Medvedev agreed to involve technicians in development plans but if Russia is not treated as an equal partner in the U.S.-led effort they might not join if it becomes operational. Medvedev says there must be a full-fledged exchange of information or Russia will not participate. Obama received support from NATO yesterday but severla key issues were left unanswered. No one knows if it will work or if Europe can afford it. Howver, these issues were put aside in celebration of the agreement as a boost in NATO solidarity.
