A toe in the Kosovo waters

Article Abstract:

President Bill Clinton argues that the US should intervene in the conflict in Kosovo, Yugoslavia, while following a strategy that permits the withdrawal of troops after their task has been completed. He has committed troops as part of a peacekeeping force from the North Atlantic Treaty Organization (NATO). It is not clear why intervention was not carried out earlier, and it is not clear when the troops will be able to leave. There is a risk that US troops could be killed and that the withdrawal could be hasty. The US can take risks if the president is honest in explaining them.

Article Abstract:

A peace agreement between the North Atlantic Treaty Organization (NATO) and Serbia may be possible, following ten weeks during which NATO has carried out aerial attacks. There are difficulties over the composition of a peacekeeping force that will be used in Kosovo, Yugoslavia, if Yugoslav president, Slobodan Milosevic, accepts a withdrawal from Kosovo. The Kosovo Liberation Army (KLA) could become a problem for both sides. The KLA has achieved greater moral authority as a result of its role in the ocmabt.

Another chapter opens in Kosovo

Article Abstract:

An agreement between President Slobodan Milosevic of Yugoslavia and US envoy, Richard Holbrooke, provides for the monitoring of the withdrawal of Serbian armed forces from Kosovo, Yugoslavia. The agreement follows the authorization of air strikes by the North Atlantic Treaty Organization (Nato), and means that air strikes will not be carried out. There are still concerns about the future of Kosovo and its inhabitants, such as whether refugees will be able to return.
