Blair and his wife Cherie flew to Moscow under a wet snow and then arrived by helicopter at Zavidovo, a presidential residence in the countryside north of the capital. Although Russia continues to oppose military action against Iraq, it has dropped its flat-out rejection of calls for a new U.N. Security Council resolution that would lay out strict terms for Iraqi cooperation with weapons inspectors, as urged by the United States and Britain. Throughout the growing crisis, Russian officials have notably avoided statements supporting Saddam Hussein, indicating that the Kremlin's stance is dictated primarily by the desire to protect Russia's interests in Iraq - and that, say analysts, is where Blair can be influential. Blair has cultivated personal relations with Putin, becoming the first Western leader to visit after Putin was named acting president on Dec. 31, 1999. Putin in turn made Britain his first foreign destination after being elected in March 2000.
