NSC draft: 4/10/89
Western Europe Speech
When Harry Truman spoke at the signing of the North Atlantic
Treaty on April 4, 1949, he explained its goal in his typical
down-to-earth way:
"In this pact, we hope to create a shield against
aggression and the fear of aggression -- a bulwark
which will permit us to get on with the real business
of government and society, the business of achieving a
fuller and happier life for all our citizens."
And what a success it's been! Behind the shield of our
collective defense, Europe revived and the free nations
prospered. Aggression was deterred; the world was made safer.
Bank
Our adversaries now talk seriously of peace. Has any alliance in
history ensured the freedom and prosperity of so many nations
with such success, and for so long?
The Challenge
Throughout those four decades, there were those who warned of
problems in the Alliance. The prophecies of doom were wrong.
Yet, problems there have been -- and problems there are today.
We do ourselves no favor by ignoring them. In the coming years,
the Atlantic Alliance will be tested as never before:
2
toofast
--
Many perceive the threat from our adversaries as
diminishing, which diminishes the political will in our
countries to maintain or modernize our defenses.
America's pursuit of nuclear arms reduction with the Soviet
Union has sometimes unnerved our allies, who -- while they
are eager for arms reduction -- also fear the erosion of our
nuclear guarantee and chafe at the dependency that leaves
their destiny SO much in the hands of others.
As all our governments wrestle with economic challenges,
there are tough disputes over trade and the equitable
sharing of the common defense.
These challenges must be mastered. But if we master them,
history offers us a unique chance to shape the future. For a new
era of change is also testing our adversaries, and finding them
wanting.
Their system is in profound crisis:
-- In Eastern Europe, a powerful yearning for self-
determination is asserting itself, which will not be
satisfied by mere easing of the grip of illegitimate
regimes.
3
-- In the Soviet Union, we see an extraordinary experiment in
reform, bringing many welcome changes. Whatever the future
extent -- or durability -- of this experiment, it already
amounts to a dramatic confession of failure.
Perhaps we will see, down the road, a real end to the cruel
division of Europe imposed by Soviet power. Perhaps we will see,
down the road, a real end to the Soviet military threat to the
West. That is our vision -- a Europe of security and freedom for
COMMON all, East and West.
HOUSE
Today, it's the democracies that are vibrant, as we advance full-
steam-ahead into the Information Revolution of supercomputers and
telecommunications, transforming the technological base of world
prosperity. It's no accident that this new burst of innovation
came from the creativity of the free nations. And democracy is
spreading around the world. The cause of human rights can't be
suppressed. Our principles of economic freedom are being
vindicated everywhere -- even in Communist countries. And the
connection between political freedom and economic progress --
that lesson, too, is finally appreciated as never before.
About nine years from now, the Communist Manifesto will be 150
years old. That document preached a new social and economic
system, and promised that capitalism would end up on the trash
4
heap of history. Yet today, it is Marxism that is everywhere
discredited despised discarded.
My Commitment
As the democracies enter a new era of testing and of hope, let me
declare America's commitment to its allies:
-- First, our major alliances in the Atlantic and the Pacific
remain the cornerstones of our foreign policy. What was a
bold innovation in 1949 is now a permanent fact, sustained
by both moral principle and vital interest. This is a
pledge backed by both American political parties, by the
President and Congress united, and by our people.
-- Second, America remains committed to the defense of Europe
by whatever means may be necessary, in accordance with the
agreed Alliance strategy. Our nuclear forces remain the
ultimate deterrent of aggression -- and there is no
substitute. That's why modernization is so important. The
most basic asymmetry in the European balance is geography --
the inescapable preponderance of Soviet power. The American
nuclear guarantee is the equally inescapable counterweight.
-- Third, we remain equally committed to contribute to the
conventional defense of Europe -- subject to our very real
1) signs of change -
2) But great deal more needed
5
to reach proformally different situation. shatgic
hope to reach a more secure balance, at lower levels,
through negotiations. I will strongly oppose legislative
attempts to withdraw U.S. troops from Europe unilaterally.
Moscow will still command a standing army of four and a half
million men -- after the cutbacks announced by Mr. Gorbachev
in December. We are prepared to maintain U.S. ground and
air forces in Europe so long as a Soviet military threat to
the continent exists.
-- Fourth, we will pursue better relations with our adversaries
in every area, and on a broad agenda of arms reductions --
strategic nuclear, conventional, chemical. NATO's success
over 40 years has brought us to an extraordinary moment of
opportunity in East-West relations. We will seize that
opportunity -- in constant consultation with our allies,
sensitive to their vital interests and concerns. There will
amonsables
be no surprises for our allies on such important matters.
-- Fifth, the United States continues, as it has for the entire
postwar period, to endorse and support European integration
as one of the historic developments of our time. We welcome
a larger European role in the world. We welcome the
political role of the European Community, and we are eager,
if the EC agrees, to develop and intensify the mechanisms of
our consultation and cooperation on world issues.
6
The Threshold of the Next Century
I make these pledges because there is no doubt in my mind that
America's goals for a new century of peace cannot be achieved
except in partnership with our fellow democracies. If we have the
wisdom to maintain the strength and unity that have brought us to
this hopeful point, the future holds tremendous promise.
Is this the longest send
peoce the has trul Eur. of
Look at Europe. Look at the breathtaking advance in European
integration scheduled for 1992 -- a single European market.
European unity and NATO partnership are not in conflict; they
reinforce each other. The founders of the Alliance in 1949 saw
it as one of their principal aims to ensure a climate of security
so that European integration -- which had already begun -- could
proceed. European unification has meant the ending of hatreds,
the fostering of democracy, the economic and social regeneration
of a continent, and the strengthening of the West.
Nineteen-ninety-two will mean a new resurgence of the vast genius
and potential of Europe. In today's new era of technology, it
means Europe's opportunity to remain in the first rank. In an
era of new hope for an end to Europe's divisions, resurgent
Western Europe will be a magnet, drawing the economically and
politically impoverished countries of Eastern Europe westward,
toward our way of life. In today's new era of political change
7
sweeping across the continent, the strategic importance of what
is happening on the Western side of the line cannot be
overestimated.
There will be problems in Atlantic relations, but these problems
16 nature
are soluble. The United States and other nations will fight hard
against protectionism and unfair barriers that deny access -- you
can be sure of that. We want to see what President Kennedy used
to call an "outward-looking" Europe, a European Community that
uses its new strength to contribute to a global expansion of
trade, not to constrict it. We need to create with our European
friends specific new mechanisms to manage the transition to 1992
cooperatively.
In the security dimension, the dividend can be just as great.
European defense coordination can mark a new stage of Atlantic
relations. In the coming new era, the West needs a stronger
"European pillar," in the framework of the Alliance. We support
the historic endeavors of defense cooperation between France and
Germany. We support the British and French independent nuclear
deterrents and their modernization, cooperation between those two
countries, and their special role in European security; we will
make no agreements with the Soviet Union that compromise those
forces. We value the contribution of the Eurogroup in NATO's
councils. We applaud the revitalized Western European Union and
its landmark "Platform" of October 1987, which expressed Europe's
8
own identity and interests but in partnership with the United
States. We welcomed the WEU's coordination of European efforts
to help protect the Persian Gulf.
I do not fear European defense cooperation. Granted, part of its
motivation is to be a little more independent of us. But
Europeans should see defense as an enterprise they engage in for
their own future, not as a favor to the United States. And our
security interests are parallel, indeed indivisible; no advocate
of this European coordination conceives of a plausible defense of
Europe without the continuing partnership with the United States.
Such efforts, which can increase the effectiveness of Europe's
role in Western defense, should also be taken account of in any
measurement of how burdens are being shared.
Conclusion
Nineteen-ninety-two, of course, will be a notable date for
another reason -- commemorating the discovery of the New World.
We have five centuries to celebrate, not just four decades.
We all know Canning's words about the New World called into
existence to redress the balance of the Old. Twice in this
century, the New World came to the rescue of the civilization
9
that gave birth to us. And we Americans, with our great and
growing cultural diversity, like to think that we have enriched
that common heritage.
How fitting it is that Europe's own resurgence will mark the next
advance of that civilization! The North Atlantic Treaty
expressed the will of its members, and I quote: "to safeguard
the freedom, common heritage and civilization of their peoples,
founded on the principles of democracy, individual liberty and
the rule of law." Those are values that Europe gave to all of
us, and nurtured over its long history. The modern vitality of
Europe -- its prosperity, its freedom, and its unity -- is the
vindication and culmination of everything we cherish.
They are universal values -- whether expressed in the American
Bill of Rights, or the French Rights of Man, or the Universal
Declaration of Human Rights, or in the power of the idea of
democracy as we see today on every continent. America -- and the
world -- owe a moral debt to Europe that is beyond measure.
Today's challenges to the West are without precedent. There are
dangers -- most of all if we fail to stand together. But our
success for 40 years points the way to the future.
Harry Truman, on that memorable occasion, put it this way:
10
"We do not believe that there are blind tides of
history which sweep men one way or another. In our own
time we have seen brave men overcome obstacles that
seemed insurmountable and forces that seemed
overwhelming. Men with courage and vision can still
determine their own destiny. They can choose slavery
or freedom -- war or peace.
If there is anything
certain today, if there is anything inevitable in the
future, it is the will of the people of the world for
freedom and for peace. "
How right he was!
