The administration deserves credit for having made it work. It is important for NATO to have it work. It's important for NATO to be strong and confident and to help keep the peace in Europe. And one of the reasons I felt so strongly that the United States needed to participate was because of our relations with NATO, and NATO is going to be an important part of keeping the peace in the future.
NATO does not want the united states to participate
the paragraph states that NATO felt strongly that the United States needed to participate, therefore NATO does want the united states to participate. The system may have missed this as it is worded differently above
( z1 want :polarity - :ARG0 ( z2 military :name ( z3 name :op "NATO" ) ) :ARG1 ( z4 participate :ARG0 ( z5 country :name ( z6 name :op "United" :op "States" ) ) ) )
