Mr. President. it seems to me there are two good reasons for a complete overhaul of foreign aid the world has changed and Congress has changed. The cold war is over replaced by a new. ambitious Russia. a host of violent smaller regimes. ethnic tensions. nuclear concerns. and massive refugee movements affecting even our own borders. On the bright side. there are former communist nations actively seeking U.S. support. the flourishing of free enterprise and democracy. giant leaps in free trade and real prospects for peace in some of the most wartorn parts of the world. Since the world has changed so dramatically. our tools of foreign policy must change with it--and one of the key tools is foreign aid.
