The Russian drama began at the end of 1991, when the Soviet Union mercifully ended. Russia and 14 other new countries emerged from the ruins of the Soviet Union. Every one of those 15 new states faced a profound historical, economic, financial, social and political challenge.

The Big Push
If a country wants to successfully take off
In the sky of prosperity
It needs huge investment
But the least developed countries
Can hardly afford it
However
If there is a will
There is a way
There are many donor
Agencies and countries
Who are ready to provide soft loan
To the LDCs
So the government of the LDCs
Should encourage
Unsolicited project proposals
From the international donors
And prepare suitable project profiles
That will benefit both the parties
Moreover
The government officials
Should be highly trained
So that they can evaluate
The viability of the offers properly
In this way
The LDCs will be able to big push
The economy so that it can take off

The point is, once they have a missile that can hit the United States, we are now back in the kind of game we used to worry about with the Soviet Union, only the Soviet Union was more mature about this whole thing than I think the North Koreans will be.

When I handed over the names and compromised so many CIA agents in the Soviet Union, I had come to the conclusion that the loss of these sources to the U.S. would not compromise significant national defense, political, diplomatic interests.
