NATO
To: President Harry S. Truman
From: Secretary of Defense Candidate,
Kareem Francis
Hello, Pres. Truman, how is your wife and
family doing? We just concluded our first meeting at NATO, and I must say,
this has quiet some potentional. First, let me rebrief you on what NATO really
is. NATO is an acronym for North Atlantic Treaty Organization. The purpose
of NATO is to enfource the terms of the North Atlantic Treaty. The North
Atlantic Treaty basically states that membering nations should have peaceful,
dipolmatic descussions to resolve issues that otherwise may have resulted
in war.
Honestly, I think this idea could not have come at a better time. Especially
with the world still on it's toes in fear of a nuclear war, and the expansion
of communism, and many countries still in shambles after the war, I think
this is ideal for providing an open forum for discusion of global issues.
However Mr. President, there is an important, pressing issue I need to
adress. Aparently, as a responce to the creation of NATO, the Soviet's have
formed the Warsaw Pact, whose major members include Poland, Bulgaria, Czechoslovakia,
Hungary and Romania, in addition to others. As of yet, we have very little
information on this Pact. However, we can assume thier agenda counteracts
this ours. This probably entails Soviet defence and the spread of communism
to create their "buffer", as it is commonly called. My sources say that the
USSR's percetion of NATO as a threat is partly because of our integration
of a "re-militarised" West Germany into NATO. That is all for now, I'll report
more and the information unfolds. Good day, mr. President.
