James A Baker II told the House International Relations Committee that Republicans should avoid micro managing U.S. foreign policy. He warned against unilateral lifting of the Bosnia arms embargo and supported potential U.S. troops for Israel and Syria if requested, while criticizing the North Korea deal and NATO expansion pace.
