Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from Department of State Bulletin, Vol. 87: The Official Monthly Record of United States Foreign Policy; January-March, 1987 Unfortunately, nearly 4 years of effort by the Contadora countries and, more recently, by the Contadora support group have not produced a workable agreement. The comandantes continue to act as an armed vanguard against their people and their neighbors. But Central America's democracies will not be intimidated. They are insisting on a negotiated solution that will satisfy the interests of all the countries of Central America and of the hemisphere. We must also affirm that threats to democracy and regional security are not confined to Central America. Those countries which have consistently pur sued the principles of democracy, and those which have recently returned to them, have an obligation to hasten a democratic transition in all the remain ing nondemocratic nations of the hemisphere. In our recent relations with Chile, for example, we have made absolutely clear our strong support for a prompt and successful return to democratic government. We also have an obligation to offer our moral, political, and material support to those peoples already struggling to implant true democracies in their coun tries. I particularly have in mind the heroic efforts of the Haitian people and their leaders to overcome generations of tyranny and build democracy virtually from the ground up. I want to commend the Secretary General for his initiative on Haiti. The United States is prepared to support it.

Download or read book Department of State Bulletin Vol 87 written by Phyllis A. Young and published by Forgotten Books. This book was released on 2016-07-15 with total page 300 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from Department of State Bulletin, Vol. 87: July-September, 1987 Now, if such a conference were ever to take place, only states would be represented and involved. They should have diplomatic relations with all of the parties that come to the table. And it should be clear that the right of any party to remove itself from the con ference or the negotiations is there if such rules or understandings are not observed. Now there recently has been progress toward such a negotiating for mat, which would offer serious prospects of reaching an agreement between the parties on peace. So as far as we are concerned, we have to, as I said, look this over carefully, skeptically, but look it over. It may be that there is a genuine opportunity to bring about direct talks. If so, we have all been striving for that. I might say, all across the spectrum of Israeli politics, there is a desire to have direct talks. Everybody is in favor of that. Once direct talks have been achieved, an important psychological obstacle would have been overcome, irrespective of the results. We have to insist that there is no predetermined result or plan, so each party can advocate its preferred approach, includ ing the approach that is represented in the Camp David accords. As far as the Soviets are concerned, it's impossible to know whether they want to be spoilers or whether they want to be constructive. I must say they couldn't do a lot worse than they're doing now - encouraging the plo and the radicals to reunite. So we'll have to see about that.

In 1986 alone, overall Soviet-bloc assistance to the Sandinistas exceeded $1 billion. These Soviet ship ments have made the small country of Nicaragua an aggressor nation with the largest military machine in Central America, threatening the security of the entire region.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The final index entry of "zero-sum game" aptly encapsulates much about the 1980-88 Iran-Iraq War (or Gulf War I as the author terms it) and its spinoff of the 1991 Gulf War II, particularly from the perspective of the US. Torock (whose background is unspecified except for the Melbourne signoff on the preface) views Saddam Hussein as a Frankenstein monster created by, and later turning against, the superpowers in a familiar pattern of their contest of political intervention in the Third World.

Deon Geldenhuys begins by discussing how he measures both voluntary and enforced international isolation by, among other things, membership of international organizations, official visits and international censure. He then presents a number of case studies of self-isolation. The remainder of the study is devoted to an analysis of the enforced isolation of Taiwan, Israel, Chile and South Africa. Using a wealth of statistical material, he demonstrates their varying degrees of isolation in the diplomatic, military, economic and socio-cultural arenas of the international community.

Book The Great Transition

Download or read book The Great Transition written by Raymond L. Garthoff and published by Brookings Institution Press. This book was released on 2000-07-26 with total page 862 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Raymond L. Garthoff examines the fateful final decade of U.S.-Soviet relations, from the start of the Reagan administration in 1981 through the end of the Soviet era—the collapse of the communist bloc, the end of Gorbachev's failed perestroika, and the demise of the Soviet Union itself at the end of 1991. While standing on its own, the book is a sequel to the author's earlier acclaimed, Détente and Confrontation: American-Soviet Relations from Nixon to Reagan, which covers the period 1969-1980. This volume features a detailed examination of the perspectives and actions of both the United States and the Soviet Union and their interaction, including the interrelationships of domestic factors with foreign and security policies in both countries and the involvement of both powers with other countries around the world, which infringed on their direct relationship. Besides analyzing the turn from confrontation to détente over the years of the Reagan and Bush administrations and Brezhnev through the Gorbachev administration, it reflects on the significance of the great transition from the cold war to a new era. It thus illuminates the very relevant recent history that underlines and informs American-Russian relations and the new situation of a post-Soviet, post-cold war world. Garthoff has obtained access to many formerly secret Soviet documents on this period in the Russian archives, as well as to a number of official American documents that have only recently been declassified. In addition, he has been able to interview and discuss the issues with many active or former Soviet and American officials. The author concludes that the key development was the advent of a Soviet leader, Mikhail Gorbachev, who recognized the need to cast off a failed world view and to end the cold war—and who successfully moved with the United States, under the Reagan and Bush administrations, and others, to achieve that goal; notwithstanding his failure in the parallel attempt to revitalize and transform the Soviet Union. Selected by Choice as an Outstanding Book of 1994

Book The Long Road Home

Download or read book The Long Road Home written by Vernon E. Davis and published by . This book was released on 2000 with total page 652 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The Long Road Home is a companion work to the recently published book on the prisoner of war experience in Southeast Asia-Honor Bound by Stuart I. Rochester and Frederick Kiley. The two books were prepared at the request of former Deputy Secretary of Defense William P. Clements, Jr. Some of the early research and drafts of a few chapters are the contribution of Wilber W Hoare, Jr., and Ernest H. Giusti, former JCS historians who helped initiate the project. Davis carried forward the research and writing to completion over a period of many years and is entitled to the fullest credit for production of the final text and documentation. This history of Washington's role in shaping prisoner of war policy during the Vietnam War reveals the difficult, often emotional, and vexing nature of a problem that engaged the attention of the highest officials of the U.S. government, including the president. It examines frictions and disagreements between the State and Defense Departments and within Defense itself as a sometimes conflicted organization struggled to cope with an imposing array of policy issues: efforts to ameliorate the brutal conditions to which the American captives were subjected; relations with families of prisoners in captivity; the proper mix of quiet diplomacy and aggressive publicity; and planning for the prisoners' return. At a pivotal juncture the Department of Defense exerted a major influence on overall policy through its insistence in 1969 that the government "Go Public" with information about the plight of prisoners held by the North Vietnamese and the Viet Cong. There is evidence that this powerful campaign contributed to the gradual improvement in the treatment of the prisoners and to their safe return in 1973. The detailed account of negotiations with the North Vietnamese for the withdrawal of American forces from South Vietnam makes clear how important in all U.S. calculations was securing the release of the prisoners.
