Peace in Europe after Cold war brings tension
BUDAPEST, Hungary (AP)
— Five years ago, it sounded
like the perfect blueprint for a
peaceful Europe: Tear down the
Berlin Wall, rip apart the Iron
Curtain and dismantle the Sovi
et Union.
Today, it’s back to the draw
ing board.
“The (Cold) War is over. Be
ware of the peace,” former Soviet
F'oreign Minister Eduard She
vardnadze said ruefully Tuesday
at the conclusion of a 52-nation
summit that was supposed to
diffuse tensions in Europe.
Shevardnadze, now president
of Georgia, a former Soviet re
public wracked by ethnic vio
lence, told the session that Euro
peans were “living through such
a frightening peace.”
His Czech counterpart, Va
clav Havel, said, “The birth of a
new and genuinely stable Euro
pean order is taking place more
slowly and with greater difficul
ty and pain than most of us ex
pected five years ago.”
Their comments provided a
bitter ending to the summit of
the Conference on Security and
Cooperation in Europe. Both
were prominent in the up
heavals transforming the conti
nent since the 1989 fall of the
Berlin Wall.
The summit was intended to
strengthen the CSCE — the only
organization drawing together
the United States, Canada, all
European nations and former
Soviet republics.
The goal was to give it
enough muscle so it can try to
resolve conflicts before they de
velop into full-blown wars, such
as in Bosnia, not far from this
elegant Central European
capital.
In a hesitant step forward,
the nations offered to provide
their first peacekeeping mission
to police the disputed Armenian
enclave of Nagorno-Karabakh in
the former Soviet republic of
Azerbaijan.
They also agreed on a series
of measures intended to give the
group a higher profile, including
changing its name to Organiza
tion for Security and Coopera
tion in Europe.
The underlying strategy,
pushed by the United States and
other Western nations, is to sta
bilize Europe by bolstering its
organizations and creating
strong links between its eastern
and western halves.
The NATO military alliance
and the European Union intend
to admit Poland, Hungary and
others — but probably not much
before the turn of the century.
Russia, an unlikely candidate
for membership in either NATO
or the EU, would be drawn clos
er through special partnerships
and through the CSCE.
But the animosities displayed
by some countries at the summit
underscored the conflicts rooted
in decades-old ethnic rivalries
and hatreds.
“The very idea of the common
European House is nearly dead
and being consumed by the fires
of numerous conflicts and wars,”
said Shevardnadze.
Bosnia’s president, Alija
Izetbegovic, could not contain
his disdain for a world he said
had turned a blind eye to the
death of thousands of his people.
The meeting, intended as a
showcase of East-West harmony,
also harked back to the super
power rivalries of old.
Russian President Boris
Yeltsin railed against the United
States for trying to keep it out of
the exclusive NATO club
