§ Q13. Mr. Wigleyasked the Prime Minister if she is satisfied with the progress made during the past six months towards nuclear disarmament.

We continue to believe, however, that the Russians will recognise that agreements providing for balance at lower levels of nuclear weapons are in their longer term interests.
