• Agree that no limitations will be placed on the numbers of NATO troops or
types of weapons to be deployed on territory of new member states (including
tactical nuclear weapons)—there must be no second-class citizens in NATO.
• Explicitly reject Russian efforts to establish a ‘‘nuclear weapons-free zone’’ in
Central Europe.
• Explicitly reject all efforts to tie NATO decisions to U.N. Security Council approval.
• Establish a clear delineation of NATO deliberations that are off-limits to Russia
(including, but not limited to, arms control, further Alliance expansion, procurement and strategic doctrine).
• Provide an immediate seat at the NATO table for countries invited to join the
Alliance.
• Reject Russian efforts to require NATO aid for Russian arms sales to former
Warsaw Pact militaries joining the Alliance, as a quid pro quo for NATO expansion—NATO must not become a back channel for new foreign aid to Russia.
• Reject any further Russian efforts to link concessions in arms control negotiations (including the antiquated ABM treaty and the CFE Treaty) to NATO expansion.
• Develop a plan for a NATO ballistic missile defense system to defend Europe.
• Get clear advance agreement on an equitable distribution of the cost of expansion, to make certain American taxpayers don’t get stuck with the lion’s share
of the bill.

Это из выступления сенатора Хелмса, который тогда был председателем Комитета по иностранным делам, и этим выступлением задал тон. Не все с ним соглашались, но только двое из 18 членов Комитета в итоге проголосовали "против" (Уэллстоун и Ашкрофт).
