           MILOSEVIC INDICTED

5 April 1999          Report: Milosevic wanted for crimes

        LONDON (AP) - The International Criminal Tribunal for former 
        Yugoslavia has named Yugoslav President Slobodan Milosevic 
        as a war criminal for his alleged atrocities in Bosnia and Croatia, 
        The Sunday Times reported. It quoted an unidentified source close 
        to the Court as saying Milosevic's name has been added to a secret 
        list drawn up by the Hague-based tribunal. Charges against him 
        include a massacre at the eastern Bosnian town of Srebrenica in July 
        1995, in which several thousand Muslim men were executed and buried 
        in mass graves, The Sunday Times said. It was not known when the 
        indictment was issued but it is believed to predate the present 
        conflict in Kosovo, the newspaper said. "The West had been aware 
        for a long time that if he (Milosevic) was indicted, they would not 
        be able to negotiate with a war criminal," The Sunday Times quoted 
        its source as saying.
        "The indictment is sealed but that doesn't mean that it cannot be 
        updated so that it incorporates Kosovo." This week, the tribunal 
        announced that Zeljko Raznatovic, a Serbian paramilitary commander 
        known as Arkan, has been indicted for war crimes. Gen. Ratko Mladic, 
        who commanded Serbian forces at Srebrenica, and Bosnian Serb leader 
        Radovan Karadzic are also being pursued by the tribunal for their 
        role in the massacre. 

           Guess Who Milosevic Fired

28 April 1999
        Yugoslav Deputy Premier Vuk Draskovic urged the government 
        to admit it cannot defeat NATO. Draskovic, a former opposition 
        leader with a reputation for maverick stands, said he believed 
        Milosevic was prepared to accept a U.N. force in Kosovo.
            Draskovic pulled back in his comments Tuesday, acknowledging 
        he had not discussed the issue with Milosevic.
            But Draskovic then denounced Milosevic's Socialist party and 
        the Party of the Yugoslav Left, led by Milosevic's wife, accusing 
        them of putting their party interests ahead of ``our fatherland.''
             Also Tuesday, the Party of the Yugoslav Left, part of
        Milosevic's ruling coalition, endorsed calls for a U.N.-supervised
        ``international presence'' in Kosovo but made no mention of ``armed
        troops'' as demanded by NATO.

           Yugoslavia to Withdraw Soldiers

Dateline Belgrade, 
10 May 1999
        The government of Yugoslavia has announced it will begin withdrawing 
        some of its military and police assassins from Kosovo now that most 
        native ethnic Albanians have been deported or murdered. Those remai-
        ning will be allowed to be used for slave labor or target practice.
        The Milosevic government has further agreed to a peace keeping force,
        as long as it is composed entirely of personell from nations that 
        will allow them to do absolutely as they wish.
PEACE AT LAST!!!
PEACE AT LAST!!!
