VIDEO: NATO Goes to War
Tuesday 24 November 2015 / Hour 1, Block D: Kori Schake, Hoover; in re: NATO stands with Turkey, but tries to calm down the event – Jens Stoltenberg did a terrific job, Also pointed out that not only had Turkey released radar showing flight path into Turkish air space, bit other nations had done the same.LK: Where's the Article V declaring vs ISIS?? KS: Only one such declaration done in history. Wd like NATO to invoke Article V. F-16 . . . KS: Yes, we shd declare that a swath of sky cannot by [impinged into] and US president declines, I do like your emphasis that he Russian military isn't that good. LK: One US aircraft carrier has three times the bombers that all of Russia has in Syria. KS: Pres Obama's strategy is to do the absolute minimum possible and pass the problems on to his successor. . . . In NATO, the country that feels threatened ask s NATO for Article V; only exception was 9/11, when the Brits asked, arrayed intl institutions f/b/o the US. I guess what we'll do is beg Turkey not to ask for anything that NATO wont give them. A no-fly zone is a very good idea but doubt this president will do that. LK: Were there a grand coalition to destroy ISIS, we would not include ISIS? KS: True – identify political end-states that everyone can work toward. Need to run a coalition according to an identified end-state.
