Now, the link shows the video and audio file. The claim is ambivalent, at best.

Former President Bush never says, "Yes, we promised the Soviet Union never to expand NATO."

At best, he says "That's right", when asked if Baker told Gorbechov NATO would not be expanded.

Perhaps someone will take the time to make a transcript.

People hear what they want to hear.

So, we broke our promise to a no-longer-existent entity...

I guess that we should also feel guilty for all the broken promises we made to the Ottoman Empire.
