HARDtalk
with George Robertson, Nato Secretary-General
On
ÃÛÑ¿´«Ã½ News 24's HARDtalk tonight (Friday 19 December) Tim Sebastian
talks to George Robertson.
George
Robertson - Lord Robertson of Port Ellen - has presided over four
stormy years at Nato, which have seen the Macedonia campaign, the
September 11 attacks and the conflicts in Afghanistan and Iraq.
Those
conflicts have thrown massive new stresses on the alliance and have
exposed the gulf in defence spending between George Bush's America
and Europe.
Robertson
famously called Europe a "military pygmy", but does the
pygmy really want to grow? Do
plans for an EU defence capability threaten Nato? And can Nato serve
in Iraq?
In
his final month as Secretary-General, Lord Robertson talks to Tim
Sebastian.
HARDtalk is
on ÃÛÑ¿´«Ã½ News 24 at 11.30pm.
All
the ÃÛÑ¿´«Ã½'s digital services are now available on ,
the new free-to-view digital terrestrial television service, as well
as on satellite and cable. Freeview
