Produktbeschreibung
Excerpt from Overview of U. S. Policy in Europe: Hearing Before the Committee on International Relations, House of Representatives, One Hundred Fourth Congress, First Session, March 9, 1995 The committee met, pursuant to call, at 10:05 a.m., in room 2200, Rayburn House Office Building, Hon. Benjamin A. Gilman (chairman of the committee) presiding. The Chairman. The committee will come to order. Before we begin our hearing today, Ambassador Holbrooke, I would like to address just another topic that is of some concern to us all. This is the first full committee hearing since the shocking assault that claimed the lives of the members of the staff of our consulate general in Karachi and wounded a third. I would like to extend through you to your colleagues in the Foreign Service our condolences. They go overseas in service to our Nation and we in the Congress share with the executive branch responsibility for assuring that they are as secure as possible in performing services abroad. It is incumbent upon all of us in the Congress - and especially the members of this committee - to do whatever is necessary toward that end in providing security; toward the end of eradicating the scourge of international terrorism, whether directed at Americans or at anyone else, anywhere on the Earth. So I invite our colleagues to observe a moment of silence in tribute to our fellow Americans who have been struck down in Karachi. [Pause.] Today´s hearing is the first opportunity of our committee to focus on our policy in Europe. Our witness, Ambassador Richard Holbrooke, has served the Clinton administration with great distinction, first as our Ambassador to Germany, and now as Assistant Secretary for European and Canadian Affairs at the Department of State. In that capacity, we look forward to Ambassador Holbrooke´s presentation of an overview of the region for which he is responsible - a region that stretches from our northern neighbor to the Baltic countries. Major challenges confront our policymakers in Europe, especially in the Balkans, where wider and more violent conflict than we have seen since the period, immediately following the disintegration of Yugoslavia, threatens once again to break out.
