Michael Stumo, CEO of CPA, was quoted an article by Nick Zieminski that appeared in Reuters/Fox Business News entitled, “Analysis: U.S. manufacturers turn to Russia, with Love”

Overall U.S. exports to Russia could double to about $19 billion a year if PNTR is passed, says the Business Roundtable, which argues that the U.S. is falling behind other exporters, especially European ones.
More sales for a company like Caterpillar are a good thing, Stumo said, “but that’s different than the country’s interest.”
