REMARKS BY THE PRESIDENT
IN PHOTO OPPORTUNITY WITH BIPARTISAN LEADERSHIP
The Cabinet Room
11:00 A.M. EDT
Q Mr. President, will you be going to Congress to get
authorization before any troops would be sent to Bosnia?
THE PRESIDENT: We're here consulting about Bosnia
today, and I have been extensively consulting and no decision has
been made by this administration about this yet. So when I do, then
we'll continue to have proper process.
Q Do you think the War Powers Act is constitutional?
(Laughter.)
THE PRESIDENT: Ask my lawyer. I don't play lawyer. I
think it's worked reasonably well.
Q How do you think the vote will go in the Serb
parliament?
THE PRESIDENT: I don't know. I hope they'll not only
vote for it, I hope they'll observe it, which is two different
issues. We have to start our meeting here in a minute, but I think
one of the things that we have to discuss is that we want an
agreement in words and an agreement in fact. And that's what we've
got to watch.
Q Are you feeling any comfort in what Mr. Christopher
is saying? It sounds as though he's running into roadblocks.
THE PRESIDENT: No, I talked to him several times since
he's been on the trip. I'm pretty pleased, actually, with the
progress he's made. We're a lot -- we're in a much different place
and much nearer agreement than we were 10 or 12 days ago.
Q Have you and Senator Dole made up?
THE PRESIDENT: Absolutely. (Laughter.) I agree with
what he said yesterday.
THE PRESS: Thank you.
