Produktbeschreibung
Excerpt from Joint Hearing Before the International Security, International Organizations and Human Rights: And the Western Hemisphere of the Committee on Foreign Affairs House of Representatives, One Hundred Third Congress, Second Session; June 22, 1994 Wednesday, June 22, 1994 House of Representatives, Committee on Foreign Affairs, Subcommittees on International Security, International Organizations and Human Rights, and on The Western Hemisphere, Washington, DC. The subcommittee met, pursuant to call, at 2:05 p. m. in room 2172, Rayburn House Office Building, Hon. Tom Lantos (chairman of the subcommittee) presiding. Mr. Lantos. The Subcommittees on International Security, International Organizations and Human Rights, and on the Western Hemisphere will be in order. We will be dealing this afternoon with the Western Hemisphere drug strategy. Before calling on our witnesses, I want to recognize the tremendous leadership shown on this issue by my good friend and distinguished colleague from New Jersey, the chairman of the Subcommittee on the Western Hemisphere. I will call on him in a minute to make whatever opening statement he has. I also want to acknowledge publicly the enormous contributions to U. S. antidrug policy over the years of the ranking Republican member of the full Foreign Affairs Committee, Congressman Gilman of New York. These two leaders have done more than probably any others in the Congress in dealing with this issue. I am pleased that the President made a decision last night regarding the sharing of intelligence with Colombia and Peru. I would have been more pleased had some of you gentlemen called me a little earlier in the evening, but I was glad to learn about it - even though I was sound asleep and not even thinking about the Western Hemisphere drug strategy when the White House announcement reached me. I would like to give as much time for your presentation and questions as possible, so I will defer making an opening statement. I call on my friend from New Jersey, Chairman Torricelli. Mr. Torricelli. Thank you, Mr. Chairman, very much for your kind words and your leadership in bringing us this hearing today. For 3 years the centerpiece of the U. S. drug war in the Andes has been the use of military radars and spy planes to attack narcotraffickers at their weakest point. That point is the air bridge of small planes that links the coca leaf fields of Peru with the laboratories of Colombia.
