I intend to do everything in my power to ensure that our mission in Bosnia is. as the President said it would be. clear. limited and achievable. that it has the greatest chance for success with the least risk to the lives of our young men and women. That is our responsibility as much as the Presidents. and I intend to take that responsibility very seriously. We can best achieve this by ensuring that our Armed Forces do not engage in any nonmilitary activities such as refugee resettlement or other nationbuilding activities for which they are not trained. Therefore. we should condition our authorization of this deployment on the prohibition against our forces enforcing any other aspect of this agreement. other than the military provisions of the military annex to the general framework agreement. Further. we must ensure that the goals of their mission are clear and achievable and will justify. to some extent. the risk we will incur.
