Remembering the War on Yugoslavia 1999

Remembering the War on Yugoslavia 1999

 

 

March 24, 2018, marks the 19th
anniversary of NATO illegal and illegitimate bombing of Yugoslavia,
Serbia and its Kosovo, province during 78 days. It has – one is tempted
to say: of course – been conveniently forgotten by the West itself.


It
was masterminded by the United States under Bill Clinton and Secretary
of State Madeleine Albright after the so-called negotiations between
Serbs and Albanians in Rambouillet outside Paris (the parties never met
face-to-face).


While
Clinton may be best remembered for his relations with Monica Lewinsky
and his wife, Hillary Clinton, some of us also remember him (and
Albright) for bombing Afghanistan, Sudan, Bosnia-Hercegovina and
contributions to the proportionately largest ethnic cleansing in
Yugoslavia – of Croatian Serbs out of Croatia’s Krajina, Eastern and
Western Slavonia where they had lived for about 400 years, in Operations
“Storm” and “Flash” in 1995.
