Deputy Secretary Armitage Meeting with Dr. Lambsdorff

Question: What can you say about Deputy Secretary Armitage's discussions with Dr. Otto Graf Lambsdorff about the German Foundation?

Answer: We are continuing close consultations with Germany on the resolution of outstanding issues regarding the "Remembrance, Responsibility and the Future Foundation" (the "German Foundation").
