Home Books Articles Speaking Engagements ... Biography The Rational Destruction of Yugoslavia November 1999 Why then did U.S. leaders wage an unrestrainedly murderous assault upon Yugoslavia? The Third Worldization of Yugoslavia The dismemberment and mutilation of Yugoslavia was part of a concerted policy initiated by the United States and the other Western powers in 1989. Yugoslavia was the one country in Eastern Europe that would not voluntarily overthrow what remained of its socialist system and install a free-market economic order. In fact, Yugoslavs were proud of their postwar economic development and of their independence from both the Warsaw Pact and NATO. The U.S. goal has been to transform the Yugoslav nation into a Third-World region, a cluster of weak right-wing principalities with the following characteristics: incapable of charting an independent course of self-development; a shattered economy and natural resources completely accessible to multinational corporate exploitation, including the enormous mineral wealth in Kosovo;

International Adoption FORMER YUGOSLAVIA PLEASE NOTE Also, in a country which is in turmoil, it can be difficult to determine whether children whose parents are missing are truly orphans according to adoption and immigration regulations. It is not uncommon in a war situation for parents and children to become separated when parents place their children in institutions or send them out of the area in an effort to ensure their safety. In such instances, the children are not orphans. Even when children have been truly orphaned or abandoned by their parents, they are often taken in by relatives. It is our understanding that efforts are being made to avoid uprooting the children. AVAILABILITY OF CHILDREN FOR ADOPTION Recent U.S. immigrant visa statistics reflect the following pattern for visa issuance to orphans: Number of Immigrant Visas Issued for Yugoslav Orphans for Seclected Years Fiscal Year IR-3 Immigrant Visas Issued to Yugoslav Orphans Adopted Abroad IR-4 Immigrant Visas Issued to Yugoslav Orphans Adopted in the U.S.

The parliaments of Serbia and Montenegro had already approved the constitutional charter for the new union. Yugoslavia formally ceased to be. OVERVIEW FACTS LEADERS MEDIA Serbia and Montenegro, the two republics still left in the old Yugoslav federation, had agreed in March 2002 to scrap remnants of the ex-communist state and to create a new, looser union of Serbia and Montenegro. The EU-brokered deal was intended to prevent further changes to Balkan borders by settling Montenegrin demands for independence. Controversy surrounding it led almost immediately to the collapse of the government in Montenegro where its supporters came into conflict both with those who felt it failed to give the republic enough independence and with those who thought it gave too much. However, the position of parties in favour of the agreement was strengthened when they won the subsequent elections. The constitutional charter for the new union was agreed in December 2002. It has a federal presidency and federal defence and foreign ministries but the two republics are semi-independent states in charge of their own economies.

Mr Kostunica's alliance, the Democratic Opposition of Serbia (DOS), emerged as the strongest group in September's presidential elections, but failed to get an outright majority. In any case, it was obliged to bring Montenegrin representatives into the coalition. SNP success The process of forming a government was further complicated by the fact that virtually all the 50 places reserved for Montenegro in the 178-seat federal parliament were won by the previously pro-Milosevic Socialist People's Party of Montenegro (SNP). New line-up Prime Minister: Zoran Zizic (SNP) Deputy Prime Minister: Miroslav Labus (DOS) Foreign Minister: Goran Svilanovic (DOS) Finance Minister: Dragisa Pesic (SNP) The SNP - which is in opposition in Montenegro - owed its overwhelming success to the Montenegrin governing coalition's boycott of the Yugoslav elections.

Germany Info Home: Military Issues: Yugoslavia Germany’s Contribution to the Peace Effort in the Former Yugoslavia Since the early days of the Balkan conflict, Germany has actively worked to help deal with the crisis and its repercussions. During the war, Germany provided safe haven to the majority of the refugees, over half a million at the peak of the war, and contributed to the establishment of the framework for a secure environment to enable the refugees to return home. The German Armed Forces have participated in the following military operations in the Balkan region: - The Sarajevo airlift, with 1,400 sorties and 10,800 metric tons of delivered supplies. - Humanitarian airdrops into Bosnia and Herzegovina, with 320 sorties and 2,100 metric tons of delivered supplies. two frigates, and naval aerial reconnaissance.

They entered the war totally unprepared. (see article by Paul-Marie de La Gorce) and its all too predictable refusal was seen as a casus belli Like all Balkan geopolitical issues, the situation was clearly complex and had been going on for years. The search for a compromise was bound to be long and hard. That being so, the Rambouillet conference should have continued for several more weeks, especially since the few thousand OSCE (Organisation for Security and Cooperation in Europe) observers in Kosovo were to some extent keeping the violence against the Kosovars under control. The bombing has also had other unforeseen casualties. It has further marginalised the UN by being decided without specific authority from the Security Council. In most countries it was ordered by governments without a parliamentary vote, undermining the role of parliament. On the ground, the bombing is also affecting the Serb (and sometimes Kosovar) civilian population. A number of people have been killed through military errors and the bombing of factories and infrastructures has destroyed tens of thousands of jobs. Daily life is fast becoming a nightmare.

EQUIPO NIZKOR Information DERECHOS A Pattern of Aggression. The legality of the war against Iraq remains the focus of intense debate - as is the challenge it poses to the post-second-world-war order, based on the inviolability of sovereign states. That challenge, however, is not a new one. The precursor is without doubt Nato's 1999 attack on Yugoslavia, also carried out without UN support. Look again at how the US and its allies behaved then, and the pattern is unmistakable. Yugoslavia was a sovereign state with internationally recognised borders; an unsolicited intervention in its internal affairs was excluded by international law. The US-led onslaught was therefore justified as a humanitarian war - a concept that most international lawyers regarded as having no legal standing (the Commons foreign affairs select committee described it as of "dubious legality"). The attack was also outside Nato's own remit as a defensive organisation - its mission statement was later rewritten to allow for such actions. In Yugoslavia, as in Iraq, the ultimate goal of the aggressor nations was regime change. In Iraq, the justification for aggression was the possession of weapons of mass destruction; in Yugoslavia, it was the prevention of a humanitarian crisis and genocide in Kosovo. In both cases, the evidence for such accusations has been lacking: but while this is now widely accepted in relation to Iraq, the same is not true of Yugoslavia.

Country Listing Yugoslavia Table of Contents Yugoslavia Government Organization for Defense A major issue in the government's organization for defense concerned the position of supreme commander of the armed forces. From 1941 until his death in 1980, Tito was supreme commander. He achieved legendary stature as a military leader because of his role in directing the wartime Partisans. After Tito's death, no political leader carried the same respect and authority with military commanders. Since 1980, the powers of the supreme commander have been dispersed within the State Presidency. Article 283 of the Constitution gave the Federal Assembly ( Skupstina ) power to declare war and peace and to ratify military agreements and treaties. However, the State Presidency had direct command of the armed forces. The Presidency was authorized to make general plans and preparations for defense, to declare that an imminent danger of war exists, to order mobilization, and to declare war in the event that the Federal Assembly could not meet. The Presidency appointed, promoted, and relieved general officers. Despite these formal powers, however, in 1990 the State Presidency was not deemed likely to exercise immediate control over the armed forces. Because of its lack of military experience and expertise, the Presidency likely would approve responses to crises and decisions on strategic issues that were proposed at lower levels. Because of its collective nature and annual rotation, the State Presidency could not replicate Tito's role as an actual supreme commander (see

Country Listing Yugoslavia Table of Contents Yugoslavia GOVERNMENT AND POLITICS Government : Federal system in which federal government and governments of six republics and two provinces (with limited autonomy) shared power and authority. After death of dictator Josip Broz Tito in 1980, head of state began annual rotation among members of eight-member State Presidency. Federal Executive Council (FEC) acted as cabinet; its president was prime minister and de facto head of government. Legislative branch was bicameral Federal Assembly (Skupstina), representing republics and social organizations. Decision making slow, often cumbersome; proposals subject to veto by republics whose interests were threatened. Politics : Until 1990, sole center of political power was League of Communists of Yugoslavia (LCY). Its split along republic lines coincided with growth of many noncommunist parties, mostly republic based, in late 1980s. First noncommunist republic government elected in Croatia in 1990. Multiparty elections held in all republics in 1990. Foreign Relations : Maintained nonaligned international position after breaking with Soviet Union in 1948; remained a leader of world Nonaligned Movement through 1980s. Previously balanced relations with Soviet Union and West tilted toward West after economic and political crises in Soviet Union and Eastern European late 1980s.
