That was in 1994 under Bill Clinton, you know, the guy who gave super computers, and our missile secrets to communist China, then got campaign donations bundled by Chinese nationalists? Donald Blinken was the Ambassador to Hungary who signed the Budapest Memorandum, the father of the moron Antony Blinken, who is now Secretary of State. You have to wonder what the Clintons got in return for this memo, because they never did anything that didn't benefit their pockets.
I sometimes wonder how they could have bought into the idea, because it was the same party that cut and ran in Vietnam. Even if it was a Republican administration, they should have known that the next Democrat administration would have squirmed out of the obligation.
