1978 , Richard Nixon , “The Presidency 1973-1974”, in RN: the Memoirs of Richard Nixon [1] , Grosset & Dunlap, →ISBN , →LCCN , →OCLC , →OL , page 1024 :When Kissinger went to Moscow on March 24 for four days of talks aimed at setting the agenda for Summit III, he reported that Brezhnev seemed to be confronting some of the same problems as we were of military opposition to a permanent agreement to limit offensive nuclear weapons . Thus we knew from the outset that it would be very difficult to produce a major SALT breakthrough at Summit III.
2013 April 9, Andrei Lankov, “Stay Cool. Call North Korea’s Bluff.”, in New York Times [2] :Even if they managed to strike Japan, the United States or South Korea with nuclear weapons — a big if, given that they do not have a reliable delivery system — they could not save themselves from ultimate defeat.
