To Whom It May Concern:

Pursuant to the Freedom of Information Act, I hereby request the following records:

White House Communications Agency video footage (WHTV content) filmed during President Obama's July 7th, 2009 visit to Moscow, Russia. On that day Obama gave remarks at The New Economic School in Moscow. He also had a photo opportunity with then-Prime Minister Putin, as well as televised remarks with President Medvedev and a meeting with opposition leaders as well as remarks at a parallel business and civil society summit.

This is a request to review all footage from that day, including outtakes and rushes.

The President's visit to Moscow is described on these pages:
