The decision to launch airstrikes was made only after the Administration and NATO worked diligently to bring a peaceful resolution to the conflict in Kosovo. There was. and continues to be. an international consensus that Milosevics actions demand our continued use of air power. I continue to hope that air strikes will pave the way for an end to hostilities in the region. a return of refugees to Kosovo. and an autonomy arrangement that can be supported by all. The possibility of a diplomatic resolution to this conflict is very much alive. Thus. the resolution before us today is premature.
