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."
