That was 14 years ago lol.

And the US needed Russia not to make much fuss over our foreign wars that we were waging around the globe and our withdrawal from the ABM Treaty so we could pursue missile defense.

The dynamics that drive these events have changed and the situation then has almost no bearing on the situation today.
