Clinton wary of Bosnia action
NATIONAL
WASHINGTON (AP) — As
recently as Friday, President
Clinton said that within days
the United States and its
European allies would agree
on military action in Bosnia
On Monday, the While House declared its Bosnia
policy tn a 'holding pattern " What happened7
Basically, the administration found that it
la< ked international support for its military plans,
that it was uncertain about its longer-term policy
on the former Yugoslavia and that in the absence
of these two ingredients it couldn't make a con
vincing case for intervention to the American peo
ple
Clinton found that the Europeans, familiar with
the ancient hatreds of the Balkans and wary of a
quagmire, were reluctant to take offensive action.
Instead, the European Community on Monday
c ailed on the United States and Russia to send
troops to protm t U N "safe zones in Bosnia. Clin
Ion has thus far ruled out send
ing troops.
He also found skepticism with
in his administration and Con
gress about the longer-term goals
of sui h intervention. If the Unit
ed States bombed Serb artillery
targets for several days to silence
the guns — as was apparently the
plan presented to the Luropoans
*Bosnia is in kind of
a holding pattern
at this time/
Dee Dee Myers,
White House press secretary
— what would happen if the Serf)* retaliated by
attacking U N relief troops'
If, as Clinton wanted, the United Nations lifted
its arms embargo and allowed the Muslims to arm
themselves, who would deliver the weapons and
train the Muslim fighters' The United States has
quietly obtained funding from Saudi Arabia and
Kuwait for sue h a scheme, but would U S. troops
have to tarry it out '
And with the Muslims trained and armed, what
incentive would they have to come to the negoti
ating table' Would the war then spread and engulf
volatile neighboring provincas? Would the United
States have to intervene there, too'
"We've got to be very sure what our interests
ore. what our objectives are. what the costs are
going to lie. what we can achieve, and how we can
get out, and none of those things have been deter
mined. none of them have been articulated to the
Congress or to the A mere an people at this point."
said Hep. l.ee Hamilton. D-lnd., chairman of the
House Foreign Affairs Committee
If Clinton knows the answers to these questions,
he isn't saying
The seeds of Clinton's dilemma wore sown dur
ing the election campaign, when he criticized
then-President Hush for failing to stop the killings
in Bosnia. It was one of the few aroas of foreign
policy on which Bush was vulnerable, and Clinton
took advantage
The reason Bush chose not to involve the Unit
ed States in Bosnia, said former National Security
Adviser Brent Scowcroft, is that "we were unable
to answer those questions about the use of military
(one that we answered specifically in the c ase of
the Persian Gulf."
Indeed. Clinton found the Roing tough when
confronted with the hard choices of using military
force to carry out his promise.
The turning point came Saturday. After telling a
skeptical news corps at a Rose Garden news con
ference Friday that "there's a lot more agreement
than you think" with the Europeans on military
fort e, Clinton met Saturday with Secretary of State
Warren Christopher who had just
returned from Europe.
What he heard was a litany of
European reluctance: how they
preferred to wait for the Bosnian
Serb referendum next weekend
on the U N. peace plan, how they
wanted to wait for Serbia to
enforce its promised embargo
against the Bosnian Sorbs, how
they wanted another U N. resolution to approve air
strikes on the Bosnian Serbs and how they
opposed Clinton's proposal for arming Bosnian
Muslims
The meeting, which White House aides billed in
advance as the start of a 48-hour consultation blitz
to prepare a plan for announcement this week,
lasted less than three hours. Clinton's weekly radio
address Saturday was devoted to campaign reform.
A planned Sunday meeting with congressional
leaders to discuss Bosnia was put off.
On Monday. Clinton left Washington to cam
paign for his economic program. "Bosnia is in kind
of a holding pattern at this time," said Press Sec
retary Dee Deo Myers
She said Clinton would call allied lenders later
this week to discuss Bosnia, but she indicated that
no decision would be made before the weekend
referendum in Bosnia
Given that the United State and its allies are
highly skeptical of the referendum’s feasibility and
effectiveness, the allies' next steps are as murky as
the civil war in Bosnia
Ex-postal worker pleads not guilty
