European leaders stand united with US

The Prime Ministers of Poland, Denmark, Spain, Portugal, Hungary, Great Britain and Italy yesterday announced a European Manifest of Unity with the United States. The Prime Ministers warned that Saddam Hussein's regime is a threat to world security and called for it to be disarmed. Seven heads of "new" and "old" NATO members stated, "A real bond between the USA and Europe exists in the values for which we both stand: democracy, liberty of the individual, human rights and the rule of law". The Prime Ministers also recalled, "the courage, generosity and foresight of America, thanks to which Europe was liberated from two tyrannies which ruined our continent - nazism and communism."
