Albright Madeleine

In a speech that carried the first hints of a major rethinking of American policy toward Russia, Secretary of State Madeleine Albright acknowledged Friday that Moscow's problems can be resolved only if the solutions have popular legitimacy. "I do not want to suggest that there is any uniquely Russian way to prosperity," she said in a formal address to members of the U.S.-Russia Business Council in Chicago.
