Both presidents worked with international allies in response to these conflicts.

Explanation

President George H. W. Bush formed an international coalition, including the United Nations and allied countries, to respond after Iraq invaded Kuwait. President Bill Clinton also worked with international allies, especially through NATO, in responding to the conflict in Bosnia. Both presidents therefore cooperated with other countries rather than acting alone.
