under nato command. we had a counterterrorism operation in the mediterranean and continue to have a very significant deployment of troops in the balkans that included not only nato countries but also partners from as close by as switzerland and austria and as

nuclear weapons committed to nato? and i ask because brad roberts once said, and i think it was on record, that japanese suffered relations with europeans because of these weapons. and the second question is somewhat brief concerning general cartwright, and it picks up on your point of special forces. there has been a lot of attention in europe that we draw all the troop brigade comeback teams, but there has been little information that europe is abusing its military presence in europe. are we seeing a more relevant u.s. presence in europe rather than just a small one? thank you. >> on the second, on the special operations, i mean, i don't know exactly the intent inside. madeline can probably address that better. but from the standpoint of relevance, i think the special operations versus a heavy brigade today for the reality we live in is going to be a lot more relevant to the defense capabilities of nato and europe. >> i may dodge that one and go after the other one. but i think the nato dpr clearly put together nato

from europe in to deployment of nato missile defense to nato to defend nato. that was the fundamental shift that occurred in september of 2009. to take system that was able deploy against possibly ten incoming missiles and put in place a nato system under nato command and control put the deference of nato countries. that is the kind of commitment to deterrence that we put in place. we put in place contingency plan to make sure that every nation that is a member of nato has a plan to be defended. that was an important contribution to deterrence. we just completed this month -- this week, last week. the first major article r5 last exercise. the alliance was conducted in the last ten years. many of the country nas participated in the exercise had never participated in an article five exercise and we just completed that. those are the kinds of steps that matter for collective desks. far more than the nuclear weapons you have. particularly when the cost of modernizing the nuclear weapons runs in to ten plus billion. when the cost of modernizing your aircraft to be

from europe into deployment of a nato missile defense in nato to defend nato. that was the fundamental shift that occurred in september 2009. to take a system that was able to deploy against possibly 10 incoming missiles, and put in place a nato system under nato command and control for the defense of nato countries. that is the kind of commitment to deterrence that we put in place. plant in place contingency to make sure every nation that is a member of nato has a plan to being defended. that was an important contribution to deterrence. we just come pleaded this month, this week, last week, the first major article five live exercise, the alliance conducted in the last 10 years. many of the countries that participated in that exercise have never participated in an article five exercise. we just completed that. those are the kinds of steps that really matter for collective defense. far more than how many nuclear weapons you may have in what country. when the cost of modernizing those nuclear weapons runs into 10 plus elion dollars, when the cost to modernize you

we should talk about sort of what that means for nato and nato planning and nato responses, but i don't think there's any getting around that essential fact. now, in terms of the tools that we have, because i wanted to address tools before i pass to my other panelists, i think there's sort of three categories of those types of tools that we can use to underwrite the deterrence approaches that i just talked about. the first category is traditional areas. we'll hear about some of them later today as the ddpr also discussed, and i think you all know that list pretty well. there's also some emerging areas, and i would put cyber and space still in the emerging areas. let me focus on space, because we'll hear about cyber, but i think space is an area nato is sorely behind in. russia calls for taking out nato's access to critical space assets in the early days or hours of any conflict or contingency and nato's approach is, well, i'm not sure anyone knows nato's approach, but it seems not to really address it, for a couple reasons some of us know. so it's really important in terms of all the ar

/nato system. it would greatly enhance the whole network. >> madlyn, kerry's visit to poland, follows for missile defense. when he was in poland he said the u.s. commitment to build the epa site in 2013 is iron clad. does that mean that the obama speech in prague 2009 in which he said it was an agreement with iran over its nuclear weapons program, if that were to be achieved robustly, that will would be a rethinking of epaa? not totally locked in and no longer valid? >> we made a substantial commitment to epa to homeland missile defense and to the nuclear deterrent. so when the department went through its strategic choices management review, those were among the three, plus cyber and space capabilities that were going to be highlighted and protected and preserved. part and parcel of that and as we've gone through the various budget deliberations, it becomes really hard to protect those things you want to protect. epa is clearly one of those things we want to protect. we've done so far a pretty good

under nato command. we had a counterterrorism operation in the mediterranean and continue to have a very significant deployment of troops in the balkans that included not only nato countries but also partners from as close by as switzerland and austria and as far away as morocco. there are 200 more balkan troops serving in kosovo. we had thirdly an operation in the gulf of adden to support operation ocean shield which links to not only the european union but countries like china and indonesia and russia. in order to provide for security at sea, we had an air policing operation in the baltics as well as over iceland, and iceland in the future will see the participation of non-nato members, finland and sweden, and of course we had our operations in afghanistan and libya. let me spend two minutes on those operations and the lessons we learned for nato. afghanistan is a unique, truly unique operation. it involves 50 nations at the height, deployed 150,000 troops. a third of which came from european nato memb

[laughter] >> i mean, i think the nato dpr clearly put forth nato with respect to nato being a nuke already alliance. , and the fact there's a nuclear weapon is something that both the npg, the knack, all the other bodies they look at, and with a good deal of seriousness. on the one hand, particularly over the last six months, is a creation of the new arms control to the adnc as well as with the hlg when the beginnings of, okay, what is it that we need to do to look at this, and confidence building measures, transparency measures in a way that inspires some reciprocal actions on the part of russia to begin to have this discussion about what would a foundation look like for reduction? that's out there. part of the allies, part of this, it has -- it's been strong, a commitment that's really respected in the notion of burden sharing. the -- at least in the context of the hlg, burden sharing has been a very important element of this, and we see good strong consensus on that, so, and, also in the context of the whole, you know, u.s. nuclear commitment to get to nato, there really is sharing. it

nato territory. so, in the 70% of that flight, there's a tremendous amount of data that we would great ly be able to leverage with our own system that we currently do not have access to, yet there are sensors in europe today that could make tremendous contributions to u.s. missile defense. >> could you be more specific? >> there's a network, space object tracking sensors. when you attempt an intercept of missiles coming in, a lot of those sensors are in locations that would be able to make very accurate assessments of whether you were successful or not much earlier than just relying on u.s. sensors where they're located and then they're saying growing emergence of mobile countries on nato. a whole array of frequencies out there that number one, make it much more difficult to counter and number two, adds robustness. so, i believe there's tremendous amount of contribution that could be made and in period of austerity that we're looking at right now, these are not expensive undertakings to link these se

military cyber officials, even at nato events, downplaying the role of nato. one of our four-star generals, he wouldn't come out and say it was russia responsible for estonia, he wouldn't come out and say that china was behind the espionage, even though the president would say that, so he was diplomatic about that, but he actually couldn't find anything nice to say about nato and cyber, and that's just -- that's just putting us in the wrong direction. second, i think we can deal with our classification schemes. right now, we so highly classify this in the united states, it completely limits our ability to have a debate, even within our own country, and it especially makes it difficult for working with our allies. department of defense has, you know, there are computer vulnerabilities that have to get patched. the d.o.d. version of that is something called aivas, and we wouldn't even share those f.o.u.o. with our nato allies for awhile, it took months and months to get this approved, and they are for official use only. and the comment that i heard, why do we ne

nato-related positions. he was a u.s. permanent representative or ambassador to nato. he served as under national security council staff as senior director for europe, principal departmenty secretary of state for euro nation affairs and served under secretary-general lord robinson. and general pat o'reilly. a new nonresident senior fellow. he comes from initial defense agency which he led as his last post in the military. he has a long career of officer positions on both sides of the atlantic. he is not just brawn, but also brains. he taught physics at the united states military academy and led the programs that have produced the energy programs, patriot pac 3 and ground base defense programs. intention operational development in missile defense. we are all very welcomed to have you here. i'm going to start off with madeline. we'll washing through our panelists and have a moderated discussion. last june in berlin, president rolled out, delivered a major speech which key element he called for dramatic reductions in u.s. and russian tactical nuclear weapons. is now the t

the cyber officials even at nato defense down playing the role of nato. china was behind the espionage and the president so he's diplomatic about that. second, i think that we can deal with or classification schemes we are so highly classified between the united states and it completely limits our ability to have a debate even within our own country. and an especially makes it difficult working with our allies. the department of defense in the computer will devotee has to get patched. we wouldn't even share those with our nato allies for a while. it took months and months to get this approved and then for official use only. it's just the wrong way of thinking about. we are going to continue to clamp down ever further on that. third, is we are coming out with some additional ideas let me focus on one and it's really frank kramer's idea and he said that nato has been in this place before looking at the nuclear planning group. looking at the offensive capability looking at the allies but it gives everyone a voice and a stake in this discussion to have that o

to be at the center of nato. it has gone through some hard and difficult issues itself, not least in the decisions it made with respect to libya. it is now going through some difficult issues with regard to the relationship between the united states. i think the administration and the soon-to-be new government will work out on this issue. they have to. it's not all that difficult to figure out how to do that, to recognize that we have an intelligence relationship that is extremely important and that good judgment about how we use the technology capabilities we have is important for the relationships that we have with our allies. the really fundamental issue is to question whether germany is willing, because i think it's able, but whether it's willing to take on the leadership role not only in what it has done on the economic side but increasingly on the strategic and political side. within europe and, indeed, within nato. i think that the united states needs that strong leadership from germany, a willingness to s

nato. it is good. it is a strong alliance. that said, the ppd that was just issued also made it clear that the u.s. really is committed to extend deterrence, and that was not only the reassurance to nato, but the reassurance in the middle east and also, frankly, most importantly, in the context of japan and korea. to that extent, deterrence is there. although there are not weapons there anymore, we've taken actions like the recent flyover with the b2 to make it clear we are committed to the extended deterrence. >> if we went down to zero in terms of tactical nuclear weapons in europe, would we have to change our forestructure anyway? >> very interesting question. [laughter] i have to say that, you know, i mean, i live in my world of strategic deterrence, and i don't venture out much into the conventional side. that would probably be a conversation for a larger group, but it depends on how strong one would believe the deterrence is in the essence of those. in other words, would the extended

going on around nato. so syria, egypt and follow-on in libya and iran and so forth, because i think we've really drifted over 20 years with nato being a central place where we imagine it as a place where we don't really talk about strategics anymore. >> thank you very much. let me take my panel for development insights. many think military defense is kind of old-thinking. it's clear they really aren't. there may be longstanding threats and tools that we have and they're linked to the new that we face be it terrorism and other things that face us today. with that, let's give our panel a round of thanks. >>> today the wall street journal ceo council is hosting its annual meeting here in washington. treasury secretary jack lew spoke about the recent government shutdown and ceiling debate and why he believes president obama's option is the best for the economy. here's a look. >> so what are we going to do on the day that congress has successfully kicked the can down the road a few months. are you saying we're

army colonel douglas macgregor who says nato is struggling to hold the alliance together. so the plan if we here up for twenty fifteen nato has is war games with forty thousand troops in portugal and spain. these countries of course will have to chipping to make it happen that's a huge expense for their better the economies what's what's the origins whatever nato conducts exercises of any kind there's always a great deal of time and money invested in what i would call a large solidarity and i know there is great concern about the troubled nature of the economies particularly on the iberian peninsula in portugal and spain i think we want to reaffirm the day or close members of the alliance that we are behind them that we support them and what better way to do that than to conduct an exercise free will in their ground and a lot of money. that is money is already budgeted more than half the troops will probably be air and naval forces so they have to conduct a certain number of operations one way or the other there's so many discussions on how nato. future there are so proud

down it's down to what he sees as a change in nato policy following actions in libya towards syria. well most of them instead of a defensive army they want to make an army intervention of aggression there was responsible for three quarters of global army spending at a time when many of its members were for broke here in central lynn a group of demonstrators on saying no to wars of intervention but with many european economies still far from recovery there's a lack of enthusiasm for spending more on the military but. it's crazy to think that this has anything to do with a new rogue state by holding operations in europe it shows nato still looks towards russia. under the guess it in the toy of the population is getting poorer and war is getting more expensive this time for various sizes i threat to society. they want politicians to pay attention to the real cost of military spending. with most eurozone countries still fighting serious economic battles it's understandable why europeans would be uneasy about shelling out for nato war games at a time they can least afford it peter all of

and while winding down its cold but mission in afghanistan nato is seeking to boost its military drills in europe in the upcoming is the alliance commanders are planning large scale exercises which they say you have to ensure the allies keep working smoothly together and like the latest nato war games held in poland and the baltic republics earlier this month these were the largest in years involving six thousand troops but the u.s. led block has even bigger plans for the future of capping drills in two thousand to fifteen which will take place in spain and portugal are expected to gather a source of more than forty thousand however financially troubled europeans are not so keen on paying for natives and bushes drills on cheese pizza all over reports. european nations can and should. do more to match america's commitment that commitment is said to see upwards of forty thousand troops deployed on maneuvers within the e.u. in the coming years all in port and work for the future of the alliance once the combat mission in afghanistan is over the question is how can you retain these operatio

but i think that the nato dpr clearly put forth nato's view as far as being part of an alliance and the fact that there clearly are nuclear weapons that the u.s. assigned to nato, is something that both the hlg, the npg, all the rest of the bodies that nato looks at, and with a good deal of sear yourness. on the one hand there's been, particularly over the last six months-ish, a creation of an arms control committee, as well as with the hlg. the beginning of, okay, what do we need to do to look at confidence-building measures, transparency measures in a way that will inspire some -- reciprocal actions on the part of russia as far as the foundation for reduction. so that's out there. but the commitment on the part of the allies, which i think is part of this, it has -- it's really been very strong, and it's a commitment that is really respected in this notion of -- so the -- at least in the context of the hrg, burden-sharing has been a very important element of this, and we see good, strong consensus on that. so, -- also in the context of the whole u.s. nuclear commitment to get to nato.

participated in that operation so it's even less than what nato was i'm certain members of nato mind you but if i go to talk about iran because it seems like the international community if you look at it at the term beyond the washington consensus is very much in support of iran's position on having civilian nuclear power but if you look at the israeli position obviously in the american one it's very much at odds with what i would call the genuine international community go ahead. right again i think it depends. what we mean exactly by. the international committee i think from the iranian perspective is the non alignment members of the united nations are not in disagreement with iran pursuing peaceful. nuclear proliferation and even i think from the western perspective i don't think the i think there is a problem with iran pursuing peaceful civilian nuclear which is very it's very pink but is are very critical it's very hypocritical isn't it if you read the nonproliferation treaty every country that signs up to it has the right to civilian nuclear power except for rand apparently acc

nato has european ambitions the blocks putting massive military drills in the u. to maintain cooperation after the afghan mission finishes despite fears it will badly hit europe's pockets. and russia the majority of greenpeace activists detained for storming an oil rig nineteen people have been released so far seven of them today.

leaving nato -- leading nato? >> at the nato remains extremely important and relevant for the u.s.. it is the first place we turn to for allies and partners and anything we do not rolling in europe than anywhere in the -- and not just in europe and anywhere in the world. do think the alliance needs to think about how we are to sustain a reasonable level of investment in our capabilities for the future at a time that is not popular for many inside europe. how do we get more bang for the buck? more bang for the euro? greater development and sharing and pooling the resources to develop the capabilities that we need. itsach member of nato cuts or reshaped his defense portions -- reshaped its defense portions along national lines, you will sub optimize what the alliances as a whole have available. we have got to have a more coherent picture of the capability the alliance needs across the board and how to invest together to ensure that we have those even though not every nation may have -- may be able to afford every capability. nato is a creature of its member governments. it is not mere

creation of a better future so i believe this is not been the case could be a bomb to democracy by nato is breaking up and on the verge of a civil war in syria the civil war has ground down into a stalemate partition is the likely outcome it would appear the only winners are the forces backing instability. to cross-talk the evolving middle east i'm joined by my guess people come ready in london he is a writer and a journalist in new york we have michael kelly he is a defense reporter for the business insider and in colombia we cross to joseph he is a middle east expert currently at the university of south carolina or a german cross-talk rules in effect that means you can jump in any time one can people find go to you first in london it's not getting a lot of media coverage and in the west but it looks like libya's is falling into another war a civil war this time on top of that we're told the pentagon wants to train about eight thousand libyans in a nato country so can you explain to me why did nato have to destroy the country and now it has to train its security forces well from americ

they say they'll stop nato trucks passing through north-west tabbing stan until the u.s. stops its drone strikes. as we said in the openers, small but effective these protests. indeed, very effective. just to tell you, in the last few minutes the members of the provincial assembly from the islamist army have gone to the u.s. consulate where they loged a protest alert against the continuation of the drone strikes. as you can see the party workers are on the roadblock. just to give you a little bit of an explainer, they are blocking the points - two critical entry points into the province. what you see behind me is a large checkpoint manneded by the islamist army. what they are doing is making sure that none of those container trucks that are passing through the last point before they enter into pakistan's tribal areas on the way to the border town. then onwards to kabul. importantly, you can see that hardly any nato trucks have gone through because they've been advised to stop the trucks. the transporters and contractors told the drivers not to go into the kpk province, th

nato pulls its troops out of afghanistan next year. they set up this mobile headquarters in the forest in to respond to any crisis, whether it be a cyber or nuclear crisis or chemical warfare. the war in afghanistan winds down. the fact that this exercise is taking place here gives you some idea of what the new members of nato are worried about, and that is their neighbor to the east, russia. yassir arafat did not die a natural death. that is the conclusion of a palestinian committee set up to investigate the death of their former leader. speaking at a conference earlier, palestinian officials say israel is the only suspect in the death of mr. arafat in 2004. there was a report by swiss scientists that concluded mr. arafat's remains contained high levels of radioactive polonium. israel disguised any -- did nine's any involvement -- denies any involvement in arafat's death. >> it is the first time we have heard the official response from the palestinian investigation team since this new research into yasser arafat's remains. we heard fr

if we become a nato member then chapter five will protect us and we'll be able to rely on nato as help in the event of any military conflict and we send our children to afghanistan to show average interest to cooperate this is the price we pay yes nicko also has kids two daughters by asking whether he'd send his son to have denniston if he had one it's a very difficult question but i'd be honored for him to become a hero they spoke of two hundred pages as cold heroes twenty nine stories of young georgian men who died in a military mission in afghanistan fortunately these tragedies have not been repeated since the book was published several months ago but as the country expands its contribution to international mission it's easy to imagine more similar chapters unfolding. r.t. from georgia. well doctors are supposed to heal not harm but some u.s. medics are being accused in an independent study of being complicit in the torture of suspected terrorists claims they helped design inhumane and cruel procedures when they should have stood up to the cia's orders associate professor of medicin

now nato is conducting its own war games on europe's eastern border of six thousand nato soldiers took part in operation steadfast jackets with the biggest european nato exercise in sydney the nation preparing for the om think of all an attack from the north against him in the states estonia six thousand nato soldiers stationed on the borders to defend the allied nations russia initially protested the war games and they soon changed its tone. a russian officer and seventy exit sign says moscow respects night to write to train its soldiers we were greeted with an aunt and to criticize israel and to watch the ministry says it's maneuvers just like nature centers come to watch os. it is now on if it's cos we recognize the fact that soldiers have to try to go forward. the railway to go to the river. a stony and tensed and tomas him to get a sense the exercises was small in comparison to brushes with the pattern has conducted an offensive exercise with ten times the amount of troops that are involved here remain long ago planned defence of exercise i mean is this a guy guess is useful for d

and basically this is the cooperation of nato and u.s. including high ranking u.s. state department officials and others with islamic terrorists basically in the perpetuation of a strategy of tension which can be used as a type of weapon against specifically in central asia and the balkans and central asia in the caucasus region which is an exceptionally important part of the global chessboard as has been your brzezinski talks about and in fact in his one thousand nine hundred seven book the grand chessboard he identified central asia as the absolute key for anyone who wants to have world dominance in this day and age needs to control central asia and that's where we find a lot of these operations now are being based with u.s. and nato officials cooperating with islamic terrorists in order to foment a type of destabilization that is aimed ultimately against rivals russia and china right very fascinating and i remember in the video series you're talking about right before nine eleven i think one thousand nine hundred seventy two thousand and one i mean we're talking
