William Pfaff place la querelle larv\u00e9e entre les N\u00e9erlandais et l’OTAN (les USA)<\/a> dans la perspective plus large du sort m\u00eame de l’OTAN. La question est de savoir si l’OTAN jouera bien le r\u00f4le qui lui a \u00e9t\u00e9 attribu\u00e9e par les Am\u00e9ricains, de servir de r\u00e9serve ou de compl\u00e9ment dans les entreprises globales am\u00e9ricanistes. 4.000 Am\u00e9ricains doivent quitter l’Afghanistan, on attend que 6.000 hommes des pays de l’OTAN les remplacent. Le gouvernement n\u00e9erlandais a promis 1.100 hommes (avec des h\u00e9sitations : deux ministres ne sont pas d’accord), le Parlement rechigne. On attend un vote en f\u00e9vrier. Suspense.<\/p>\n<\/p>\n

\t Dans son article du jour dans The International Herald Tribune<\/a>, Pfaff remarque : \u00ab NATO was established for Europe’s defense against Russia. The effort to turn it into an adjunct of American global strategy is reasonable enough from Washington’s point of view, and desirable in the eyes of many European Atlanticists, as it preserves their special links with Washington. The trouble lies with public opinion. The Iraq war was unpalatable even for people in some of the countries whose governments initially committed troops to the coalition. Hence the Iraq coalition has slowly disintegrated.<\/em><\/p>\n<\/p>\n

\t\u00bb The NATO operation in Afghanistan is widely believed in that country, and in the region, as the preliminary to complete American withdrawal. Iraq is more urgent, and the continuing but unsuccessful search for Osama bin Laden in Afghanistan generates a bad press in the United States.<\/em><\/p>\n<\/p>\n

\t\u00bb Somebody needs to remain in Afghanistan during the next few years. After Soviet troops were withdrawn in 1989, the United States, which had supported the anti-Soviet forces, went home, leaving the country to the Taliban. This proved not to have been a good idea.<\/em><\/p>\n<\/p>\n

\t\u00bb This time NATO is to take over. That at least seems the idea being tried out. Whether the Dutch realize it or not, the future of both NATO and Afghanistan may be what their Parliament really will be debating.<\/em> \u00bb<\/p>\n<\/p>\n

\tAutre th\u00e9\u00e2tre d’op\u00e9ration: l’Europe. Depuis quelques semaines, on reparle ici et l\u00e0 (Merkel, la pr\u00e9sident autrichienne) de relancer la Constitution en \u00e9vitant les votes populaires qui d\u00e9rangent. Hier, les N\u00e9erlandais ont mis les pieds dans le plat, \u00e0 l’extr\u00eame satisfaction du Daily Telegraph<\/a> : \u00ab Federalist hopes of reviving the draft European Union constitution were snuffed out yesterday when the Dutch foreign minister, Bernard Bot, said the treaty was dead. He swept away months of euphemisms and half-truths, as European leaders struggled to avoid being the first to declare an end to the constitutional project, after its rejection in referendums by French and Dutch voters.<\/em> \u00bb<\/p>\n<\/p>\n

\t\u00c9tonnants Pays-Bas. Ils ne font pas la une des magazine bien inform\u00e9s, comme en France sur le pessimisme fran\u00e7ais, mais ils sont, depuis 2002 et l’assassinat du leader populiste Pym Fortuyn, dans une crise profonde qui se traduit par une paralysie grandissante, notamment sur les grands axes conformistes de la politique n\u00e9erlandaise depuis un demi-si\u00e8cle : l’atlantisme et le suivisme pro-am\u00e9ricain, l’int\u00e9gration europ\u00e9enne.<\/p>\n<\/p>\n
