OOPS….

President Boris Yeltsin made headlines February 18 when he said (at the opening of a summit with the European Union) that the night before he had called President Clinton and told him: “We will not allow you to touch Kosovo.” White House officials, however, insisted the next day that Clinton and Yeltsin had not spoken in several weeks. Kremlin spokesmen later said the president meant to refer to “recent conversations.” Whatever.
