Yeltsin, Albright For Constructive Cooperation

����Russian President Boris Yeltsin and visiting US Secretary of State Madeleine Albright agreed in Moscow Tuesday that the two sides would further develop their multifaceted ties despite some differences.

����In a telephone conversation, the two reiterated the need for bilateral ties based on equality, mutual respect and consideration of each other's interests, the presidential press service said.

����Yeltsin expressed "concern over Washington's actions in connection with transition into practical work of activities to create a national anti-missile defense system," but Albright told him that the United States remains committed to the 1972 Anti-Ballistic Missile Treaty.

����Albright said Washington is ready for continued close contacts with Russia on the issue.

����On Iraq and Kosovo, the major sticking points in relations between the two countries, Yeltsin called for intensified efforts by the international community for political solutions.
