It was one which was echoed by the other Western leaders\u2014the British prime minister, the German chancellor, the French president. As we negotiated German unity, there the question was: Could a united Germany stay in NATO? At first, Gorbachev said, &#8220;No, if they unite, they have to leave NATO.&#8221; And we said, &#8220;Look, let them unite. Let them stay in NATO. But we will not extend NATO to the territory of East Germany.&#8221; Well, it turned out that legally you couldn\u2019t do it that way, so in the final agreement it was that all of Germany would stay in NATO, but that the territory of East Germany would be special, in that there would be no foreign troops\u2014that is, no non-German troops\u2014and no nuclear weapons. Now, later\u2014at that time, the Warsaw Pact was still in place. We weren\u2019t talking about eastern Europe. But the statements made were very general. At one point, Secretary Baker told Gorbachev NATO jurisdiction would not move one inch to the east. Well, he had the GDR in mind, but that\u2019s not what he said specifically.<br \/>\nSo, yes, if I had been asked when I was ambassador of the United States in Moscow in 1991, &#8220;Is there an understanding that NATO won\u2019t move to the east?&#8221; I would have said, &#8220;Yes, there is.&#8221; However, it was not a legal commitment, and one could say that once the Soviet Union collapsed, any agreement then maybe didn\u2019t hold, except that when you think about it, if there was no reason to expand NATO when the Soviet Union existed, there was even less reason when the Soviet Union collapsed and you were talking about Russia. And the reason many of us\u2014myself, George Kennan, many of us\u2014argued against NATO expansion in the &#8217;90s was precisely to avoid the sort of situation we have today. It was totally predictable. If we start expanding NATO, as we get closer to the Russian border, they are going to consider this a hostile act. And at some point, they will draw a line, and they will do anything within their power to keep it from going any further.

But are we being drawn into it, or are we driving these events? It has been true, ever since NATO was created, that the United States controlled NATO. Now, it is also true now that there\u2014that NATO is deeply divided on the Ukrainian issue. There\u2019s a war party. And the war party is led by Poland, the three Baltic states, to a certain extent Romania but not so much, and Britain. Then there\u2019s a party that wants to accommodate Russia, that thinks that this is not entirely Russia\u2019s fault. And moreover, these people\u2014the Germans, the French, the Spanish, the Italians\u2014depend on Russia, in many ways, for their economic prosperity. They want to negotiate, not punish Russia. Where is Obama in this? It would appear nowhere, except occasionally he comes in, as he did in Estonia\u2014was it yesterday or the day before?\u2014and seem to give a speech that favors the war party.<br \/>\n<a href=\"http:\/\/www.democracynow.org\/2014\/9\/5\/ukraine_ceasefire_takes_hold_but_an\">Clique para ler a entrevista completa&#8230;<\/a><\/p><\/blockquote>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>N\u00e3o gosto de fazer postagens do tipo &#8220;clipping&#8221;, mas dada a absoluta car\u00eancia de material de qualidade para se ler sobre a crise na Ucr\u00e2nia, vou postar aqui os trechos iniciais de um artigo do diplomata\u00a0portugu\u00eas Francisco Seixas da Costa e de duas entrevistas publicadas na passada semana no Democracy Now: N\u00f3s e a guerra&hellip; <a class=\"more-link\" href=\"http:\/\/caderno.allanpatrick.net\/?p=4794\">Continue reading <span class=\"screen-reader-text\">Tr\u00eas textos sobre a crise na Ucr\u00e2nia<\/span><\/a><\/p>\n","protected":false},"author":1,"featured_media":0,"comment_status":"closed","ping_status":"closed","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":[],"categories":[2],"tags":[244,604,677],"_links":{"self":[{"href":"http:\/\/caderno.allanpatrick.net\/index.php?rest_route=\/wp\/v2\/posts\/4794"}],"collection":[{"href":"http:\/\/caderno.allanpatrick.net\/index.php?rest_route=\/wp\/v2\/posts"}],"about":[{"href":"http:\/\/caderno.allanpatrick.net\/index.php?rest_route=\/wp\/v2\/types\/post"}],"author":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"http:\/\/caderno.allanpatrick.net\/index.php?rest_route=\/wp\/v2\/users\/1"}],"replies":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"http:\/\/caderno.allanpatrick.net\/index.php?rest_route=%2Fwp%2Fv2%2Fcomments&post=4794"}],"version-history":[{"count":0,"href":"http:\/\/caderno.allanpatrick.net\/index.php?rest_route=\/wp\/v2\/posts\/4794\/revisions"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"http:\/\/caderno.allanpatrick.net\/index.php?rest_route=%2Fwp%2Fv2%2Fmedia&parent=4794"}],"wp:term":[{"taxonomy":"category","embeddable":true,"href":"http:\/\/caderno.allanpatrick.net\/index.php?rest_route=%2Fwp%2Fv2%2Fcategories&post=4794"},{"taxonomy":"post_tag","embeddable":true,"href":"http:\/\/caderno.allanpatrick.net\/index.php?rest_route=%2Fwp%2Fv2%2Ftags&post=4794"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
