The United States and Russia have made significant headway on a nuclear arms reduction pact in the last week but are not done yet, US officials said on Wednesday.
"We are making very good progress. I can't predict to you exactly when the agreement will be completed but we are getting closer," Undersecretary of State William Burns told reporters as US Secretary of State Hillary Clinton flew to Moscow.
Clinton's 36-hour trip is built around a meeting on efforts to revive peace talks between Israel and the Palestinians that have stalled in the last week over a U.S.-Israeli dispute about settlement building in occupied land.
In addition to her talks with the quartet of Middle East peace mediators -- the European Union, Russia, the United Nations and the United States -- Clinton will sit down with Russian Foreign Minister Sergei Lavrov on Thursday President Dmitry Medvedev on Friday.
