Description

The head of Secretary of State Hilary Clinton appears against a backdrop of the Beehive. Text above quotes her as saying 'NZ punches way above its weight' and she adds '...and it's been quite a wait... twenty five years to sort things out!' A second version has Clinton saying '...and it's been quite a wait since you guys stuffed up the relationship!' A third version has her saying '...and it's been quite a wait between nuclear ships and partnerships!' Refers to Labour's ban on ships that were nuclear-powered or nuclear-armed that led to George Schultz confirming in 1985 that the United States was no longer willing to maintain its security guarantee to New Zealand, although the ANZUS treaty structure remained in place. Refers secondly to the 'Wellington Declaration' that 'formalises a new strategic partnership between New Zealand and the United States, and commits to regular meetings at foreign minister level, which includes working together on trade and holding annual military talks' that was signed between Clinton and Key on the occasion of the November meeting.
