Intro: Hungarian prime minister Gyula Horn -- following talks
with president Clinton at the White House -- is expressing
optimism about the U-S Hungarian bilateral relationship and the
prospect of Hungary becoming a NATO member in 1997. White House
correspondent David Borgida has details.
Text: Prime minister Horn's forty-five minute meeting with
president Clinton left him, in his words, "completely satisfied"
with his visit. He spoke through a translator:
///Horn translator act///
I can say indeed the U-S administration and president
Clinton helped Hungary a lot, not only in a bilateral
framework but also in our negotiations with the various
international financial institutions.
///End act///
The Clinton administration has channeled hundreds of millons of
dollars into Hungary as it makes its transition to a market
economy. Through the U-S overseas private investment
corporation, the administration is helping Hungary improve its
digital cellular telephone system.
In a statement released at the White House, president Clinton
noted Hungary's successes in its free market transformation, but
stressed the need for the government to implement its economic
program announced Marhc 12th. The president also urged prompt
conclusion of a sound agreement between Hungary and the
International MonetaryFfund, which would pave the way for
additional international support.
On the security front, prime minister Horn also expressed
optimism Hungary would be in the first wave of former east bloc
nations accepted into NATO. Again, he spoke through a
translator.
///Horn act///
I think that there will be a decision made in December,
1995. We're going to start the negotiations in 1996.
The conditions will be shaped jointly in the process of
consultations. In other words, there is a reality and
chance that we may become a member of NATO in 1997.
///End act///
However, a senior U-S official said no specific timetable was
discussed. Later, Clinton spokesman Mike McCurry said 1995 will
be a year of studying NATO expansion, with further talks in early
1996. He said there has been no speculation beyond that.
Mr. Mccurry explained the prime minister's view this way:
///McCurry act///
Clearly the commitments we've seen from Hungary as it
has pursued its own individual partnership program have
been very encouraging, and I would imagine the prime
minister's optimism is based on the close relationship
that's developing between NATO and Hungary.
///End act///
The two leaders did discuss Bosnia during their meeting, but
neither the president nor the prime minister offered any public
comments on the matter.
After their meeting, the two underscored the bilateral trade and
investment relationship by touring a bus parked on the White
House grounds. Partially produced in Hungary, it is soon to be
placed into operation in Washington, D-C.
Prime minister Horn visits a number of U-S cities before ending
his U-S visit Monday. (Signed)

Intro: Hungarian prime minister Gyula Horn has praised the
Clinton administration and congress for taking a lead in efforts
to strengthen democratic and market reforms in Central and
Eastern Europe. As V-o-A's Michele Kelemen reports Mr. Horn is
urging the United States to keep its investment levels up.
Text: As he wrapped up his visit to Washington, prime minister
Horn reminded U-S leaders that the economic transformation in
Central and Eastern Europe is key to stability in the region. He
says a high level U-S investment is already creating needed jobs
in Hungary and could help it meet the tough conditions for
joining the European Union. Speaking through an interpreter, he
told a luncheon at the National Press Club that his country is
not asking for handouts:
/ / / Gyula translator act / / /
What we offer and what happens in practice is none other
than business.
/ / / End act / / /
The Clinton administration has already channeled hundreds of
millions of dollars into Hungary. Mr. Horn wants the U-S
government to further encourage private investors. That was one
issue on the agenda at his final talks in Washington with
treasury secretary Robert Rubin.
Mr. Horn says the crisis in Bosnia was another key issue at his
talks with U-S congressional leaders (today/Wednesday) and in
his meeting with president Clinton on Tuesday. Mr. Horn refused
to comment on U-S policy, but speaking through his interpreter,
said his government supports any diplomatic efforts to end the
fighting. He says Serbia could play a key role if it isolates
Bosnian Serbs.
/ / / Gyula translator act / / /
It is my conviction that it is in the interests of
Serbia to completely isolate the aggressors. The most
important duty of the international community is to
convince Serbian leadership of this.
/ / / End act / / /
He said the war in Bosnia has shaken the sense of security in
Hungary and other Central European countries and he again
appealed to NATO to accept new members soon. The prime minister
continues his U-S tour in New York (signed)

Editorial- NATO's New Partner
(C) 1995 THE WASHINGTON POST (LEGI-SLATE ARTICLE NO. 231081)
BORIS YELTSIN, who had broken off consideration of joining NATO's Partnership
for Peace six months ago with a warning of "cold peace," has now joined.
Russia is also opening a broad security dialogue with the alliance, which it
regarded (and which regarded it) as an enemy through four decades of Cold
War. Secretary of State Warren Christopher hails the movement as "historic,"
saying that Russia is crossing "the threshold into direct engagement with
NATO."
But hold on. The key geopolitical issue of the connection between NATO
and Russia has been sharpened, not resolved. A Russian role in the alliance
halfway house called Partnership has a nice ring. But it cannot mean much to
Moscow to get on the alliance's very long and not very exclusive B list. A
formal NATO-Moscow "dialogue," recognizing Russia's weight and expanding on
security contacts already in place, has more heft to it but needs to have the
substance filled out.
The fact is that NATO and Russia have divergent views on how to organize
the security of the new Europe. NATO speaks airily of someday extending
alliance membership to assorted Partners, even Russia. But many Partners will
qualify at best only in the remote future for full membership in an alliance
of democracies. And to imagine that Russia will come in is to ignore the fact
that many current members, and many Partners, see Russia first as a power
that must be balanced, not as a companion to take into camp.
Russia accepted Partnership as though it were making NATO a concession.
In return Russia expects the alliance to sideline, or at least to slow, the
idea of expanding its membership. Foreign Minister Andrei Kozyrev even
suggests that NATO abandon its military essence and become a political
seminar.
Europe has not outgrown the requirement for a military alliance and for
American participation in it. The alliance should be taking in new members --
Poland, Hungary and the Czech republic are leading candidates. The way to
deal with Moscow's complaint that NATO is redividing Europe and pushing the
dividing line eastward is to keep NATO defensive and make something real of
NATO-Moscow dialogue. A special place for Russia was always the right
substitute for alliance membership. Meanwhile, if Russia is looking to get
closer to friends in the West, it can clean up its act in Chechnya.
