NATO's Eastward Push under the Clinton Doctrine
- Date: Wed, 12 May 1999 00:58:30 -0400 (EDT)
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
Robert I Hunter, senior adviser at the Rand Corporation and US
ambassador to NATO from 1993 to '98, recently wrote the following
in the Washington Post (21 April), with respect to the Clinton
doctrine and its application in Kosovo: "It is the gateway to areas
of intense Western concern -- the Arab-Israeli conflict, Iraq and
Iran, Afghanistan, the Caspian Sea and Transcaucasia. Stability in
southeastern Europe must be a precursor to protecting Western
interests and reducing threats from farther East."
