NATO's Eastward Push under the Clinton Doctrine (fwd)

~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~


 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."
