I am fully prepared to meet our responsibilities to our troops and personnel involved in this important NATO effort. It is unfortunate the House insisted on adding billions of additional. unrequested funding for defense projects. many of which are unrelated to the NATO action in the Balkans. I also endorse our commitment to assist the millions of refugees. who are victims of this unfortunate conflict. I. too. am pleased this bill provide critical assistance to the victims of Hurricane Mitch. This deadly and destructive hurricane decimated several Central American countries. and has been particularly difficult on families already surviving on subsistence levels.
