Speech #1060011248

Is this the kind of American leadership we want for the 21st Century? If these negotiations fail because of our actions today. how long can we stand idle? Will the United States merely wring its hands as the flames of this war spread to Albania and Macedonia and Greece and perhaps Turkey? Even as we are here tonight. even as we speak. Milosevic has been emboldened. Serb troops are crossing the Kosovo border. Tanks are pounding villages. helpless villages: and refugees are running. literally running for their lives. We have a chance tonight. Vote "no" on this amendment and say "yes" to the Gejdenson resolution for peace.
