Mr. Speaker, my question is for the Minister of Foreign Affairs.

Recently I met with the Council of Central and East European Communities in Canada regarding Canada's support for the enlargement of NATO to include countries of central and eastern Europe which have expressed a wish to join the military alliance. What has Canada done to ensure that these countries will be integrated into NATO as part of a broad and comprehensive process of building up a new European security arrangement?
