Russia and NATO
An obvious solution to the controversy surrounding the admission of Poland, Hungary and the Czech Republic to NATO (“Expanding NATO,” series, April 13-15) is to invite Russia to become a member, too. Not merely a peripheral associate, but a full, voting, troop-contributing member of the NATO alliance. Nothing would better symbolize the end of the Cold War, or of the kind of thinking that started it in the first place.
