General George Joulwan <BR>
Supreme Allied Commander Europe
<P>This is an historic and exciting time to be in the New Europe.
Despite the fall of the Berlin Wall and the collapse of Communism,
Europe is still a dangerous place. In addition to its fundamental
mission of collective security and defense, the New NATO has had to
adapt quickly and respond rapidly to these dangers and the other
demands of the dynamic European security environment. Crises in the
republics of the former Soviet Union, the continuing conflict in the
Balkans, and the maturing of newly-formed democracies and free-market
economies in Central and Eastern Europe are just a few of the specific
challenges facing the Alliance. In response, the streamlined New NATO
has launched a host of initiatives including Partnership for Peace,
the Combined Joint Task Force, and Counter Proliferation programs. It
has also developed impressive, new crisis management capabilities.
These programs will enable the New NATO to respond effectively to
today's and tomorrow's challenges, to help consolidate the gains of
Europe's democratic revolution, and to foster continued European peace
and prosperity well into the next century. The operational challenges
in the New Europe are many. In fact, with reduced forces and
resources, the need for an effective and efficient Atlantic Alliance
is greater than ever before. The mission of the New NATO continues;
its importance and relevance make it a key component in the emerging
European security architecture.</P></TD>

DINNER ADDRESS <BR>
His Excellency Volker Rühe <BR>
Minister of Defense of Germany
<P>Our responsibility is to shape a new Europe of lasting peace and
stability, with NATO as the continued basis for security in Europe.
The political and strategic relationship between Europe and North
America is essentially based on common values and similar interests.
It is the Alliance that can genuinely guarantee the security of its
members. It is a model for working political and military cooperation
between sovereign democratic nations and at the same time an important
driving force for political change in Europe. It is our historical
obligation to admit the young democracies in our eastern neighborhood,
that have contributed so much to the radical change in Europeówhich
resulted also in Germany's unificationóto NATO and the European
Union. The recent decisions of the Alliance have established a defined
agenda for this process. Integration and cooperation are key elements
for stability in the whole of Europe. We must preserve what we have
already achieved, and we must be willing to share it with new
partners.</P></TD>
