Global look at what was happening on a global i mean in all their air bags, i dont think this would have happened. So to you, mr. Shimizu, and that is a november 6th New York Times article stated takata secretly conducted tests in 2004 at your auburn hills location pin response to the rere lease of metal fragments issue with the honda accord. According to the article, the steel inflators allegedly cracked during the tests and takata ordered the testing data deleted and the air bag inflators destroyed. Takata has disputed the report saying the report was based son some misunderstandings. What specifically about the report was inaccurate . Yes, senator.

So i dont think anybody at the time thought it was a smart strategy for reducing our bud

We have a very large scale cassis crisis around the ukraine. To my knowledge, in moscow, there are talks on a possible new deal. According to the leaked information, i do not know to what extent this information is correct, the subject of the talks can be ukraines neutrality, or a ceasefire along the new contact line inside the ukraine state. If it is done, then we are talking about freezing of the conflict zone. Also, we are talking trying to get the ukraine and friends to drop orientation. How do you think this strategy, which is very nicely developed and design, can act quickly and efficiently . And to protect freedom of choice of those in the neighborhood of russia . I think it is way too soon to make judgments on what may be on the table in moscow today. Our german and french allies are in moscow. I have been in close cont
