Secretary of State Clinton's European trip set out the seriousness of the Obama administration's commitment and marked a new era of transatlantic relations. ++ The tête à tête between Clinton and Lavrov -- symbolized by a button representing the resetting of soured relations given to the Russian Foreign Minister -- confirmed that both countries want to cooperate on the Iranian, North Korean and Afghan dossiers. ++ This won't happen overnight; Mrs. Clinton stated that the US will continue to disagree on certain key issues.
