According to Admiral Lopez, Southern Europe is one of the most strategically important areas in the world today, especially with regard to American interests.

Of greatest concern to the admiral is the recent rise of instability in Southern Europe, as evidenced by the crises in Bosnia and Albania, and the need for U.S. forces there to remain forward deployed and engaged in promoting peace and stability.
