DURHAM, N.H. ?? Reform Party presidential candidate Pat Buchanan is promising to lead a "millennial struggle" against the steady emergence of a world government "where all nations yield up their sovereignty and fade away."

In a draft of a speech he plans to deliver Thursday in Boston, the twice-failed Republican presidential candidate said the Clinton administration is allowing the United Nations to intrude on America's sovereignty.

He also said the United States is guilty of "trampling on the sovereignty" of other nations by injecting troops in internal conflicts, such as Kosovo. The speech was provided to The Associated Press.

"If ever sovereignty becomes obsolete, we may expect America's involvement in endless wars until, one day, we pay a horrific price in some act of cataclysmic terror on our own soil," Buchanan said. "For interventionism is the spawning pool of international terror."

Buchanan left the GOP last year to seek the Reform Party nomination after his initial 2000 presidential bid as a Republican stalled. He blamed the Republican establishment for his failure, saying party leaders were lining up behind the front-runner, Texas Gov. George W. Bush.
