| | Two vital American interests are at stake. The first is the maintenance of a stable, democratic, |
| | prosperous Europe, which is essential to our future. The second interest is to prevent the |
| | emergence of a hostile power or a coalition of powers capable of threatening us or our allies. The |
| | countries of Central and Eastern Europe (CEE) sit at the crossroads of these two vital American |
| | interests. |
