News - Gore Sees Sense in Boosting Power - The St. Petersburg Times. General news from St.Petersburg and Russia: "Speaking at an international forum in St. Petersburg on Russian economic development, Gore added that he opposed all a country's important economic decisions being made federally, saying this slows the process of development.
The U.S. and Russia should join forces in the fight against terrorism, he said.

"'Russians may not agree with what we do in the Middle East, and Americans may think that Russia has not made the wise choice in Chechnya ... But in the face of this threat [terrorism] we won't be broken, we will stand together,' Gore said"
