In discrediting our legitimate defensive needs he has managed to distract attention from his own greater. more intensive strategic defense system. Within the last decade the CIA estimates that the Kremlin has spent $150 billion. yes thats $150 billion. on its version of the SDI. According to a respected group of Soviet dissident scientists. including some we in Congress helped emigrate. the Soviets devote much more of their efforts and resources into their own SDI Program than we do. They also warned that the Soviet Union would likely continue to proceed with its SDI even if it signed an agreement not to. They recommended that we not yield on development of the strategic defense peace shield.
