Political Quotes

“throughout his first year in office, President Clinton has set the ship of state adrift in some very rocky international waters. Now, after 13 months of rudderless foreign policy, President Clinton has hit upon a cease fire in Sarajevo brokered in large part by the French and Russians. It is time for Mr. Clinton to start taking foreign policy seriously. We have seen our foreign policy wander through the sands of Somalia until American soldiers were killed for no apparent reason. We have seen American military involvement in Bosnia at least temporarily averted through this fragile cease-fire. Where do we go from here? With an ever-growing crisis on the Korean Peninsula, now more than ever, it is time to put our rudder back in the water and find a direction for our foreign policy. In order to prevent future conflicts, Mr. Clinton must aim another laser beam at foreign policy, and reassert American leadership in the world arena.”
