leadership that led to today′s signing of the Russia and Moldova

relations with Russia through the rules-based World Trade Organization

'We applaud President Obama for signing this important legislation that
guarantees U.S. companies the same advantages of Russia′s WTO
commitments as our foreign competitors,? Kleinfeld said. 'This is a
historic moment in U.S.-Russia relations and marks the beginning of a
new era in bilateral commercial cooperation that will benefit global
trade and American jobs.?
