Congress plans·to renew
debate over troops in Bosnia
By DONALD M. ROTHBERG
Associated Press Writer
·
,
WASHINGTON- Remember Bosnia? It is back in all its complexity
and potential for renewed ethnic savagery.
· ·
.
· .
For months, Americans from the highest levels of government to ordinary citizens were grateful for a chance to forget Bosnia. After all, didn't
NATO military power and U.S. diplomatic pressure produce the Dayton
Accords and promise peace for that sad country'
.. .
Once again, Congress is ready to debate the question of whether the Umt:
ed States should have troops stationed in Bosnia, a debate that w1ll focus
on the failure to produce the civil society envisioned in Dayton.
.
Rep. John Kasich, R-Ohio, .chairman of the House Budg~t Comm1tt~e,
and Rep. Floyd Spence, R-S.C., chairman of the Ho~e Nat1onal Secunty
Committee, are leading a bipanisan coalition that wants to cut off f~ndmg
for the U.S. presence by Sept. 30, nine months earlier than the deadhne set
by the Clinton administration.
.
.
. .
.
There now are 8,500 U.S. troops m Bosma. The admmiSirauon has
• promised they will notremain after July 1998: a commitment ~at has revived
old tensions between the United States and 1ts European alhes.
The debate over dates is just the latest exampie of diplomacy by exit strategy. The names are painfully familiar: Somalia, Haiti, Bosnia. All were dangerous places that required a commitment of U.S . power. But th~ o~ly ~ay
to get agreement to use American military fprce was to emphas1ze 1ts hmits, to commit to a.depanure date.
·
That need drove the ear.lier debate on Bosnia, and it will dominate the
revived exchange. ·
.
Advocates of getting U.S. forces out !Jf the form_er Yugoslav reg1on as
soon as 'possible argue with some justification that \IItie progress has been
made toward a peace that has inuch chance of lasting after NATO pulls out.
" Achieving a sustainable peace in Bosnia is unlikely under any realistic
time frame ," Spence said. "The U.S. should begin to work immediately
· ~ toward a policy that permits the orderly ~ithdrawal of U.S. ground forces ."
• ·
On the other side of the congressional debate are those Who want a U.S.
: ; commitment to remain in Bosnia as long as ittakes·to establish a sustain;::. able peace .· ·
·
.
.
"The task we have there is not finished," said Rep. Lee Hamilton of Ind1.• · ana, senior Democrat on the House International Relations Comminee.
· · " Reconstruction of Bosnia is going to take a long time."
·
Hamilton argued that a U.S. withdrawal~ certain to precipitate the pull·. · out of all other NATO troops c- would kill hopes of implementing the civ. · il side of the Dayton agreement, the biiili.ling ef a society that woull\ guar. . an tee the rights of Serbs, Croats and Muslims.
. _
.
· ·
The result would be "a drift toward partition of Bosnia or a possible
• resumption of war," he said. ·
.
.
.
Defense Secretary William Cohen tried w1thout success on a recenttnp
.: . to Europe to sell NATO allies on the idea they should stay hi Bosnia after
a U.S. pullout.
.
·
. ·
By the end, he was saying the United States and its allies were in agree... .· ment that "we cannot make a permanent commitment to stabilize that region
and never leave."
Cohen put. the onus on the people of Bosnia to accept a commitment to
•. peace. ''You can't impos~ a peace; that has to l!e m ~~~ healls of men and .
women. We will find out if they are prepared to do that, he sa1d after r~turn• ing from Eur.ope.
.
·
·
The presence of a NATO force th~t included 20,000 U.S. troops was a
critical factor in assuring that the )!lamng fact1ons·m Bosma - Serbs, Croats
and Muslims - would stop fighting and give peace a chance.
Needing to show he had an exit strategy, Presid,ent'Ciinton promised that
the U.S. troops would remain in Bosnia for .only a year, a deadhne that.envl, · sinned withdrawal righrabout the time of the 1996 pres1denlial elcctmn .
Diplomacy by exit strategy was good domestic politics but not very cffcc. tive peacemaking.
.
.
·'
As the 1996 deadline approached, 11 was clear a new comm1tment was
: necessary·and the 8,500 U.S. troops are in Bosnia today as pan of a recon: : stituted NATO peacekeeping force .
.
.
.
• ; What happens if the force withdraws and leave Bosma to work out ns
• ; own problems? .
·
.
.
..
.
' . Ironically, the military balance m1ght now be m favor of the Mushms,
: who were seen as the victims when NA10 intervened nearly two years ago.
11 is possible that a new round of fighting might p~uce a shift in roles
in which the former' villains, the Serbs, become the v1clims.
