The billowing smoke-signals

Article Abstract:

Kosovo, Yugoslavia, has a population that is 90% ethnic Albanians, and it is seeking secession from Yugoslavia. North Atlantic Treaty Organization (Nato) is unlikely to take action against Yugoslav forces, dominated by Serbians, which are involved in the conflict in Kosovo, according to Pentagon officials. The Kosovo Liberation Army (KLA) and the Serbs appear to have intensified their efforts after the warning that Nato would not become involved. The KLA argues that it will not negotiate prior to a withdrawal of Serbian troops. The conflict is likely to worsen prior to being resolved.
