this was their answer to nato. mikael gorbachev, who i tend to trust told me three times that james baker who was then secretary of state told him that if you agree to the unification of germany and taking down the berlin rall, i tell you that nato will not move 1 inch to the east. now you may say he's lying, but i don't think he is. is. i think he's telling the truth and the thing is that during the soviet period which didn't last very long after that, nato did not move to the east. it moved under clinton. when the russians started saying what's going on here he was told no, no we have no agreement with you, we have an agreement with the soviet union but it's no longer there. so in 1991 poland czechoslovakia became members of nato. it was followed by romania the argument isn't about dates -- i may have gotten a date mistaken but finally nato found itself on russia's border in estonia and in latvia. you may say but there's nothing dangerous about that. i'm telling you this is cold war mentality that nato is seen as

nato is seen as a threat.hat the russians have said about ukraine, rightly or wrongly, is, we will not allow nato to be on our border in the southwest. will not allow. america did not allow the missiles. we will not allow this. that is the reaction. that is the way it is seen. you think nato is nothing, fine. [applause] garry: a couple points. one is about russian elite. you repeatedly said it. there is no russian elite making decisions. it is one man making decisions. this russian elite knows exactly where to put their keys, their money, their fortunes. all the way to the west, miami probably in this country as well. that is why the whole idea of the russian elite being afraid of the west is not true. they know they can be saved with their fortunes and the future generations here. then, i hear repeatedly that putin is very popular. i don't want to argue with you about the integrity. yes, i agree. i give them full credit. what is an opinion poll? somebody pulls you about mr. putin. that is an opinion poll. 20%

nato was seen as a threat. with the russians upset about ukraine rightly or wrongly is it will not allow nato to be on our border in the southwest. well not allow. as america as america did not allow the missiles, we will not allow this. you cannot you cannot condone it. that is the reaction, the way it is seen. nato is not dangerous. fine. [applause] >> a couple of points. there is no russian elite making decisions. and by the way this russian elite as a combined entity knows exactly where to put their money fortune. all the way. probably this country as well. that is why the whole idea of the russian elite being afraid of the west is not true because they know that they can say with the fortunes command another that i here repeatedly come up putin is very popular. i don't want to argue about the integrity. i give them full credit. somebody calls you and us what you think about mr. putin. that is a pole. 20% of 20 percent of people say they don't like put. [applause] and also, what i hear is you get used to be

>> nato's stretches to the north pole. that is whyt is so natural to have training exercises in doing the nonormal activity that we do also to be extended to all of nato's area. anchor: china and singore are two nations that were interested in the arctic and it seems unusual but the chinese are heavily involved in iceland. obviously for mineral reasons. there are more port facilities. they have a fishing port facilities and management. at some point they say that rate -- that raises potentiotal challenges. does norway or any other countries in this region need to consider whether there are lawss or other mechanisms that are focused on low range security issues associated with such foreign investment? >> it is important everyone plays by the same rules. it could be different. from my perspective we are not seeing anything. nothing indicates that is a prlem. we could seeee activity that will challenge us in many ways with different countries showing interest. there's also a kind of activity they are ierested in and we would

and nato. a unitede u energy policy would make it much more difficult for russia to use its gas pipelines as it does now to blackmail and bully its neighbors. if it weren't for nato, russia would find it much easier, for example, to take the land it badly wants in the arctic. and so the russian regime has invested heavily in anti-europe pen, anti-transatlantic, and even fascist political movements all across europe. a russian bank has lent 9 million euros to marine la pen, the leader of the far right in france. russia also maintains strong political and financial links to the anti-sem met tick party in hungary and far right groups in germany, italy, and many other countries. what to do about this problem? we need to disengage and isolate. let's get russian money out of european politics. thirdly, the russian regime has invested massively in an e nor missystem of disinformation. television stations in multiple languages, websites, fake think tanks and a vast army of internet trolls who are desig

of three nato countries are deployed in turkey under nato command and control to augment turkey's airies in response to the crisis on turkey's southeastern ok border. voluntary national contributions are the foundation of a missile defense system. and there are several approaches allies can take to make important and valuable contributions in this area. first, allies can acquire fully capable bmd systems possessing sensor, shooter and command and control capabilities. second, allies can acquire new sensors or upgrade existing ones to provide a key ballistic missile defense capability. finally, allies can contribute to nato's ballistic missile defense capability by providing essential basing support. such as turkey, romania, poland and spain have already agreed to do. in all of these approaches, however, the most critical ok requirement is nato < interoperatability. yes, acquiring is, of course, good in and of itself. but if that capability is not intereperable, then its value is significantly diminished. it is only through interoperatability, and enhance nato bmd through shared battle

last month, nato defense ministers decided to enhance the nato response force by creating a spearhead force known as a very high readiness joint task force which will be able to deploy on very short notice. the task force consists of a land component of around 5,000 troops with an appropriate mix of air, maritime and special operations forces units. it aims to strengthen the alliances collective defense and ensure that nato has the right forces in the right place at the right time. third, we're providing substantial support to ukraine as it deals with simultaneous economic and military crises. ukraine has been a strong partner of the united states and nato since independence and our security cooperation with ukraine dates back to 1992. during this period, the united states provided ukraine with military training, professional education, communications equipment and support for border control and counterproliferation efforts. unfortunately, the corruption of the regime starved the armed forces of resources. the neglect of the armed forces by the regime did not, however, strip the milit

and destroy nato. so secretary mckeon and admiral pandolfe, i'd like your opinion on that statement. >> senator isakson, i would defer to the oic in terms of the terrorist threat. isil is certainly a threat to the united states, as are other branches of al qaeda and isil. we are certainly worried about the negative trend of russia and what it is doing not just in ukraine but along europe's borders and it's the core of the reason that we have taken a lot of the reassurance measures that we have and thinking hard about making sure that the alliance commitment can be met, not just through the united states, but through all our nato partners. >> admiral? >> senator, traditionally degree of threat is defined as capability and intent. in terms of capability, you know, the russians are world class state with a world class military. in terms of intent, that makes it even more important that we do the kinds of initiatives that we've talked about this morning to try to shape the intent to minimize the risk. >> t

that is the essence of what nato is. charlie: if he moves into a nato country, we will respond. you say we need to fight strength with strength. how do we do that that we have not done that? what is your criticism of what we have done before or how have we not been as tough as we might have to get his attention? adm. mullen: i was -- when i was chairman, the russians went into georgia. i was taken in conversations and what was written back then by the essence of what georgia and ukraine are to russia. on the western side, what the western view is that these are countries that want to come into nato, towards the west. we are at the heart of where russia started. i think we need to be very careful about opening those doors or being forceful about pushing them in that direction. charlie: it was wrong to encourage a nato expansion into certain parts of the eastern end of europe? adm. mullen: i thought we were accelerating that far beyond -- charlie: and it scared him. adm. mullen: absolutely. this is his homeland. the russian empire started in kiev. when you start talking about kiev

at nato. >> at nato as well. so you might have an interesting perspective on that. >> let me say, the right to have questions about the future with, in an association with the eu and -- because, quite frankly when the choice was posed at any point in the last two decades, there are several european nations who steadfastly oppose any further expansion of membership, particularly to the ukraine. i think it's, in some case simple greed of the southern states who don't feel they have their share of benefit yet. and they fear ukraine as a compelling competitor in that way but there are also others who stress other themes particularly the religious question. the real problem though is, i think, it is a false analogy to look at bosnia serbia, and croatia. that's a very different set of wars and leadership, and histories, than ukraine is. i think while ukraine is an amalgam, there is no question, out of various historical periods and backgrounds, what strikes me as encouraging, particularly out of the survey that steve h

the police chief says they were american forces, nato won't confirm that now. they'll only confirm that an incident did happen in jalalabad, a firefight between international forces and afghan army personnel. one afghan army soldier killed in that fight. >> this is obviously i suppose another indication of just how unstable the situation is in afghanistan and around kabul, as well. >> that's right. i mean, inside the governor's compound very, very secure, the police chief tells us there were lots of police and afghan army soldiers there a very secure area. we've seen really the instability here with the afghan military. in 2012, it was a very big problem, afghan military soldiers opening fire on nato soldiers, 61 soldiers were killed in that year. force protection measures went in to protect international soldiers. we're not sure that's what happened in this event but that's what we've seen in the past. there are fewer international soldiers here as the nato force draws down, so fewer opportunities for the two to be together but this clash between international

what would nato actually do.hat might be the next step. >> i want to talk about some news that is breaking because i know you spent time in iraq. iraqi officials say that a man has been killed he was a former top advisor to saadam hussein. how significant is his death? >> well i think he has probably been hiding in plane site and was killed likely by a sha shia militia. he was not going to turn over to the iraqi government and get anything reconciled. he was going to jail and to be executed like saadam hussein. >> how many of those guys are with isil? >> yeah the 55 that were in there, most have been killed or captured but you have for example this individual he was in his 70s. it's not like he was doing anything tactical but he was providing that spiritual look with regard to people that we're going to set this organization up that will continue to fight the iraqi government. >> the former [ inaudible ] are part of isil's organization, and that's where they get a lot of their fire power from. was there any way a

nato at once expanded to east germany. gorbachev naturally objected, that he was informed by washington that these were only verbal commitments and nothing in writing. the kind of unspoken implication is that if you're naÏve enough to accept verbal gentlemen's agreement with the united states, it's your problem. clinton came along and expanded nato to the borders of russia, and as another leading international relations recently pointed out in a major establishment journal of foreign affairs, he pointed out that the indications that ukraine might be assimilated into the western system possibly even into nato could not fail to be threatening to any russian leader. we need only imagine how the united states would have reacted at the height of soviet power if the warsaw pact had taken over most of this hemisphere and now mexico we are preparing to join the rush and run military alliance. last december the western backed ukrainian parliament voted 303-8 to rescind the policy of non-alignment that had been adopted by the ousted

nato has -- does not have a time limit per se. but it cannot stay without us and it cannot and will not make any decisions without our decisions being made first. this ought to be a no-brainer because even if we end the combat role we have still said we'll leave military in afghanistan on a training mission. well, if we're going to be training we ought to want help. we ought to want other people helping us train. nato's the logical vehicle. we know there's going to be an assistance requirement for afghanistan. if we're going to be doing assistance we ought to want help in that. if other countries want their troops involved, they will be more inclined to make assistance commitments. so we ought to be focusing very hard on extending to some degree the nato mandate beyond 2016 however we constitute our part of it, so we don't just fall off the edge of a cliff. and nato is not a -- this is 26 nations and steering a supertanker is easy compared to getting turns and -- you just don't get quick adjustments with 26 nations. so while we ar

nato. the marshall plan. world bank. you know. radio free europe. and all created in the big bang by the people that say we have to help to win the war of ideas and economy. and a defensive struggle against soviet backed communism. so that was thinking out of the box and by the way today, we are engaged in a new type of struggle against terrorism, and islamic radical terrorists. and we are still using the old institution that wise men invented and make nato and the world bank and the imf to deal with it. we are as creative as they were. we can think out of the would, and say, what international anti-terrorist organization should replace nato? what should we do instead radio for europe to fight you know the hearts and the minds of people around the world. so i like the creativity of the wise men. clearly it was weird to have two young people. evan and myself out of college to go to a publisher saying that we want to write about the six people that we barely heard of in the time that is was far distant. simon and schuster. and they said, she said yeah

nato will not confirm that. they confirm that there was a fire fight, and one afghan army soldier was killed in the fight. the governor's compound very very secure. there were lots of police and afghan army soldiers there, so it should be a very secure area but we have seen really the instability here with the afghan military. in 2012 it was a very big problem. afghan military soldiers opening fire on nato soldiers. 61 were killed in that year a lot of force protection measures went in to protect international soldiers. we're not sure that is what happened in this event, but it has happened in the past. there are fewer international soldiers here as the nato forces draw down. but this clash between international soldiers and afghan soldiers show how difficult the situation is here in afghanistan. >>> for the first time, ferguson's city council will have the same number of black and white numbers. voters turned out in large numbers on tuesday. >> with respect to some of the things that i want to do first is that

the crucial issue at that time in 1990 had to do with nato. now that the alleged threat of russian invasion had disappeared, one might believe that nato would have dissolved and its quite the contrary they expanded radically. mckillip over child agreed to allow unified germany to join nato, but there was a quid pro quo, mainly that they would not expand 1 inch to the east and that's the phrase that was used in high-level internal discussions referring to east germany and they were at once expanded and corba job nashville nationally objected and these were only verbally committed and the unspoken implication is that you are naÏve enough to accept his agreement with the united states it's your problem. and clinton came along and expanded nato to the borders of russia and is another leading scholar recently pointed out in a major establishment journal that the indications that the ukraine might be assimilated into the western system, possibly even into nato, could not fail to be threatening to any russian leader. we only need to know how the unit

nato has done this already. the decision was taken to make ballistic missile defense a mission of nato. and then further that the ballistic missile defense plans the rules of engagement the defendant asset list and everything were agreed upon at 28 in nato, which is as complete as you're going to get. that means that some areas get more protection than others but they all agreed to it. so you work with your allies and partners for a number of reasons. one is particularly in the cases where you have treaties, you have a responsibility to them. i mean nato is probably the most classic and the fullest one on article five. an attack on one is an attack on all. we're fully reliant on our systems and you're reliant on other people's systems to the greatest degree they can provide them and you agree to it. there is certainly a matter of trust. you want your allies involved not only because you have a responsibility to them as they do for you for joint defense and cooperative defense but for whatever assets they can bri
