Your nuclear weapons strategy, negotiating from strength and the ability to destroy the world x times over, might have worked in the past but it is unlikely to be effective with terrorism and rogue states. How many other superpowers are you keeping in line with it today?

We have new challenges now, and we need more cooperative solutions. The dialogues that are starting are a positive (admittedly small) step on that road.
