Bush and NATO
Wednesday, April 2nd, 2008
AP reports that “President Bush on Wednesday [in Bucharest, Romania] renewed urgent calls for NATO to start the admission process for Ukraine and Georgia despite a split among alliance members and fierce Russian objections.” Bush was just in Ukraine and is scheduled to meet with President Vladimir Putin in Russia on April 6. Sen. TINY KOX BORIS KAGARLITSKY He said today: “Last Sunday when I was in Kiev (Ukraine), I’ve learned that for local bureaucrats the visit of G.W. Bush seemed to be like a natural disaster: ‘You have to get ready in advance, it leads to disorder and broken windows and in the end leaves everybody unhappy…’” FRIDA BERRIGAN “Europeans are wise to be wary of a program that costs U.S. taxpayers more than $8 billion a year, has not been adequately tested and so far does not work, fans international tensions and locks in an every-nation-for-itself approach to nuclear proliferation.” Background: “In February 1990, after talks with West Germany’s foreign minister, Secretary of State James Baker had assured Gorbachev and Shevardnadze that ‘NATO’s jurisdiction would not shift one inch eastward from its present position.’ The [first] Bush administration began backing away from that pledge almost immediately. The Clinton administration reneged on that commitment altogether when it decided to expand NATO to Eastern Europe. … “‘The issue is not just whether Czechs, Hungarians and Poles join NATO. The problem is more serious: the rejection of the strategy for a new, common European system agreed to by myself and all the Western leaders when we ended the cold war,’ Mikhail Gorbachev wrote in March 1999. ‘I feel betrayed by the West. The opportunity we seized on behalf of peace has been lost. The whole idea of a new world order has been completely abandoned.’” Have Your Say: Bush and NATO Please read our posting guidelines before posting. Alternatively you can discuss this report here.
