President Barack Obama on Monday submitted to the Senate the protocol for a nuclear-weapon- free treaty on Central Asia, saying its ratification is "in the best interest" of the United States.
Russia's Foreign Ministry said late Sunday that Moscow respects the expression of the will of people in southeastern Ukraine to vote by election for regional leaders and legislative bodies.
The signing of a new protocol will make the free trade pact with Australia and the Association of Southeast Asian Nations (ASEAN) more business-friendly, transparent and flexible, New Zealand Trade Minister Tim Groser said Wednesday.
China on Wednesday signed a protocol to the Treaty on a Nuclear-Weapon-Free Zone in Central Asia.
