McCain Tells NATO To Get Tough On Serbia 12:28 a.m. Apr 24, 1999 Eastern BOSTON (Reuters) - U.S. Sen. John McCain on Friday spoke out against what he called the Clinton administration's ''mystifying'' handling of the military campaign against Serbia. McCain, who is campaigning to become the Republican Party's presidential candidate cited two ''critical'' errors of the NATO campaign: an excessively restricted air campaign, and repeated declarations by Clinton that NATO would not deploy ground troops. ''These two mistakes were made with what almost seems willful ignorance of every lesson we learned in Vietnam,'' said McCain, who spent five years as a prisoner of war in Vietnam. ''You're never supposed to show the enemy what you won't do to win.'' ''The war against Serbia is necessary, and winning the war against Serbia is necessary as well,'' the Arizona Republican told Reuters following a speech to Massachusetts business leaders hosted by the Boston Herald. McCain said not taking whatever steps are needed to win, including deploying ground troops, erodes U.S. credibility and endangers the future of NATO. The NATO alliance, McCain said, ''will not survive another decade, much less another half century, should we fail to impose our will on an inferior but dangerous European power.'' He said the U.S. Congress should next week grant President Clinton authority to use whatever means are necessary to win the war in Yugoslavia. Copyright 1999 Reuters Limited.
