AFP: Kosovo Serbs at risk of ethnic cleansing: Swedish general

"A positive result of what happened (in March) is that we discovered the fragility of the project in time. If we had already significantly reduced (the number of troops), the ethnic cleansing could not have been stopped. Then, maybe about 100,000 Kosovo Serbs and other minority groups would either have been dead or gathered in the refugee camps we have seen so many of throughout the history of the Balkans," he wrote.

Serbs in Kosovo in danger of being ethnically cleansed - Scenes from the March pogrom

 

In his initial analysis of what he had seen in Kosovo, Alexey Lidov said that in March a pre-planned campaign of destruction of Orthodox monuments had been carried out and that this assessment was confirmed to the UNESCO experts by one of the German officers protecting Holy Archangels Monastery near Prizren. "The throng of people was organized by individuals with military experience. The masses acted in accordance with the principles of military tactics; they intercepted roads so reinforcements for protecting Orthodox buildings could not arrive on the scene. Another example is Devic Monastery, whose interior has been covered with UCK (KLA) graffiti," said Alexei Lidov.

Swedish general: Serbs in Kosovo in danger of being ethnically cleansed

"If the Serb minority is not protected by a powerful military organization, the part of the Albanian population that has violent intents will ethnically cleanse Kosovo of all Serbs," said Braennstroem, who was the head of Swedish units in Kosovo until just last week.

STOCKHOLM - Serbs in Kosovo are in danger of becoming the victims of ethnic cleansing unless there is a powerful military presence by the international community for at least the next 10 years, assessed Swedish general Anders Braennstroem.

"If the Serb minority is not protected by a powerful military organization, the part of the Albanian population that has violent intents will ethnically cleanse Kosovo of all Serbs," said Braennstroem, who was the head of Swedish units in Kosovo until just last week.

In an interview for the Swedish paper "Dagens Nyheter", the Swedish general warned the international community of the consequences of reducing its military presence in Kosovo.

"The only good thing about what happened (in March) is that we understood the fragility of this project in time. As a result, had we reduced the number of troops of international forces, the ethnic cleansing (of Serbs) could not have been stopped," he said.

"Then perhaps the 100,000 Serbs in Kosovo would have been killed or locked up in refugee camps we have seen so many times in the history of the Balkans," he added.

Despite the escalation of violence in Kosovo, Sweden plans to reduce the number of troops it has in the province, now numbering about 900, by as much as a third.

The consequences of such a draw down would be catastrophic, said Braennstroem.

"The differences and the hatred are so strong (in Kosovo) that the problem will certainly continue to exist for many more years. Obviously it will take decades for the situation to change," said the Swedish general.

STOCKHOLM, May 3 (AFP) - Kosovo Serbs are likely to become targets of ethnic cleansing if a strong international military presence is not maintained in the war-torn province for at least another decade, Swedish Brigadier General Anders Braennstroem said on Monday.

"If the Serbian minority is not protected by a strong military organization, the part of the Kosovo Albanian population with violent tendencies will ethnically cleanse all Serbs from Kosovo," Braennstroem, who led the Swedish troops in Kosovo until last week, wrote in a commentary in the leading daily Dagens Nyheter on Monday.

Referring to the deadly ethnic unrest that rocked Kosovo in March, Braennstroem warned the international community against carrying out plans to cut back the number of troops stationed in the province.

"A positive result of what happened (in March) is that we discovered the fragility of the project in time. If we had already significantly reduced (the number of troops), the ethnic cleansing could not have been stopped. Then, maybe about 100,000 Kosovo Serbs and other minority groups would either have been dead or gathered in the refugee camps we have seen so many of throughout the history of the Balkans," he wrote.

Before the ethnic clashes exploded on March 17, NATO had been planning to reduce the number of troops serving in the Multinational Brigade Center, which has been led by Sweden, not a NATO-member.

Even after the violence ended on March 19, leaving 19 dead and more than 900 injured, Sweden, at least, has been considering dramatically reducing the number of soldiers stationed in Kosovo.

Sweden, which at the height of its involvement had as many as 900 troops in Kosovo, is considering calling nearly two-thirds of its soldiers home.
The consequences of such a move would be catastrophic, according to Braennstroem.

"The differences and the hate are so strong that the problem in any case will remain for many years. It's obvious that it will take decades before one can expect another situation," he said.


DPA Swedish general says peacekeepers should remain in Kosovo

Stockholm (dpa) May 3 - Recent ethnic clashes in the Serbian province Kosovo highlight the need for international troops to remain in the violent region, a Swedish general said Monday.

``Unless the Serb minority are protected by a strong international military force, violent-prone groups among the ethnic Albanian population will ethnically cleanse Kosovo of all Serbs,'' General Anders Brannstrom said in an opinion piece in the Stockholm daily Dagens Nyheter.

Brannstrom returned April 30 to Sweden. During the past six-month period Sweden has headed the Multinational Brigade Centre, one of four NATO-led peacekeeping groups under KFOR.

The general's warning was published against the backdrop of discussions that Sweden and other countries were considering scaling down their military presence in Kosovo, citing that stability has increased.

The March 17-19 events showed that Kosovo is not ready ``in the short-term to become a multiethnic society'' and there was no sign of a change ``for decades,'' Brannstrom said, adding that he based his assessment on the past six-month period and an earlier term in 2000.

The United Nations and KFOR assumed control over Kosovo in June 1999, following NATO's aerial bombing campaign against Yugoslavia that aimed to end ethnic violence.

Serbs and majority ethnic Albanians are segregated in most areas of Kosovo. dpa

Security council: First a more tolerant society, then status

The UN Security Council confirmed on Friday that Kosovo, hit by violence by Albanian extremists last month, must demonstrate true progress toward a more tolerant society before its final status will be considered.

UNITED NATIONS - The UN Security Council confirmed on Friday that Kosovo, hit by violence by Albanian extremists last month, must demonstrate true progress toward a more tolerant society before its final status will be considered.

"No party can be allowed to profit or to advance a political agenda through violent measures," it is said in a presidential statement read by council president Gunter Pleuger of Germany.

The statement calls on Kosovo institutions "to take concrete steps to fulfill their commitment to rebuild multi-ethnicity and reconciliation throughout Kosovo".

They are also called upon to rebuild or provide appropriate compensation for damaged or destroyed property and to rebuild holy sites and to facilitate the return of those displaced from their homes during the violence.

In the statement the Security Council also requested that UN secretary general Kofi Annan present recommendations for reform of institutions in Kosovo in order to achieve greater decentralization and more effective local government.

Razov: Moscow does not exclude repeated violence in Kosovo

Taking into account the present development of events in Kosovo, Moscow does not exclude the possibility of a new escalation of violence, stated Russian deputy minister for foreign affairs Sergei Razov.

MOSCOW/PEKING - Taking into account the present development of events in Kosovo, Moscow does not exclude the possibility of a new escalation of violence, stated Russian deputy minister for foreign affairs Sergei Razov.

"According to all information at our disposal, a repeat of such events is absolutely not excluded," warned Razov in an interview for Itar-Tass during a visit to Peking.

He said that "the escalation of ethnically motivated violence" a month ago in Kosovo "places under suspicion the correctness and adequacy of policies that have been implemented by the international community during the past five years in that region".

The Russian diplomat assessed that UN Security Council Resolution 1244, oriented toward the building of a multiethnic, multiconfessional society, as well as the mandate received by KFOR have not be properly realized. To a certain extent, this contributed to the escalation of violence, said Razov.In his words, Russia is proposing "some operational measures", one of which is "to consider restructuring KFOR" because the most recent events have shown that KFOR "is not entirely prepared to cope with such social and ethnic conflicts".

"We can also think about reinforcing the antiterrorist, police, professional part of KFOR, which would be oriented toward such situations," said Razov.

BELGRADE - Russian historian Alexey Lidov, a member of the UNESCO team, assessed that on March 17-18 in Kosovo "cultural genocide" was carried out against the Orthodox heritage.

Lidov, one of six members of the UNESCO team which visited Kosovo last week, said at a Belgrade press conference that the team managed to visit most of the damaged Orthodox monuments and that it gathered materials for an expert conclusion with proposed measures that need to be undertaken.

At the end of a Kosovo visit lasting several days, the UNESCO experts also met in Pristina with UNMIK deputy chief Charles Brayshaw.

Lidov said that he had conveyed his concerns to Brayshaw regarding the law of will among the majority population in Kosovo to preserve the historical legacy, adding that he had openly asked the UNMIK official: "What is the point of restoring these monuments if they are again destroyed?"

The Russian expert said that the UNESCO mission in Kosovo was difficult and that it took them one and a half hours of negotiations with local authorities to enter Pristina.

In his initial analysis of what he had seen in Kosovo, Alexey Lidov said that in March a pre-planned campaign of destruction of Orthodox monuments had been carried out and that this assessment was confirmed to the UNESCO experts by one of the German officers protecting Holy Archangels Monastery near Prizren.

"The throng of people was organized by individuals with military experience. The masses acted in accordance with the principles of military tactics; they intercepted roads so reinforcements for protecting Orthodox buildings could not arrive on the scene. Another example is Devic Monastery, whose interior has been covered with UCK
(KLA) graffiti," said Lidov.

He said that the frescoes in Devic Monastery near Srbica were systematically destroyed; first, the image on them was mutilated, then the name and finally they were signed with the initials "UCK" (KLA).

Lidov said that explosives were also used during the destruction of the monuments.

The Russian expert said that some of the monuments could restored as much as 95 percent, first of all, the Mother of God of Ljevis in Prizren.

However, despite this, it will take three to five years for the restoration under ideal conditions in the political, economic and every other sense, said Alexey Lidov.

Covic: UNESCO to prepare a report by the end of May

UNESCO will prepare a report by the end of this month regarding the extent of the damage of Orthodox holy shrines in Kosovo, destroyed during the March violence by Albanian extremists, said Coordinating Center for Kosovo and Metohija president Nebojsa Covic.

BELGRADE - UNESCO will prepare a report by the end of this month regarding the extent of the damage of Orthodox holy shrines in Kosovo, destroyed during the March violence by Albanian extremists, said Coordinating Center for Kosovo and Metohija president Nebojsa Covic.

Covic made the statement after meeting in Belgrade with UNESCO director general Kithara Maura several days after the UNESCO mission visited most of the destroyed Orthodox monuments in Kosovo.

The first assessment of the damage done to Serbian Orthodox monuments in Kosovo is approximately 30 million dollars, said Covic, adding that this must be "paid by the Albanians".

"If there is no real restoration of Orthodox buildings then we must concluded that what we have here is an eradication and ethnic cleansing of Serbs from Kosovo and Metohija," said Covic at a press conference.

Covic assessed the meeting with Maura as useful and constructive, adding that UNESCO official had proposed expanding the UNESCO mission to include experts of the Serbian Institute for the Protection of Cultural Monuments and the Serbian Orthodox Church.

"Maura accepted the idea of expanding the commission but a final answer will come later," Covic told reporters, adding that the UNESCO mission had visited the majority of destroyed monuments in Kosovo but not all because KFOR failed to provide them with an escort.

Covic said that he told the UNESCO head that the monuments destroyed in Kosovo were not "Byzantine" but Serbian Orthodox.

"Annex 2, paragraph six of Resolution 1244 refers to the Orthodox heritage in Kosovo as the Serbian cultural heritage. This is not Byzantine cultural heritage as is it being presented to the public," said Covic.

He dismissed claims that Orthodox churches in Kosovo were formerly mosques as standard lies.

Covic said that the UNESCO director general will launch a campaign to collect funds for the restoration of destroyed Orthodox monuments in Kosovo, adding that since 1999 almost 150 Orthodox Christian holy shrines have been destroyed and burned down in
the province.

Kostunica: We need Europe's support

A multiethnic community in Kosovo is not possible at the moment, but some kind of coexistence is. However, to achieve that, Kosovo needs tighter security measures and a suitable political solution. The problem would not be solved with Kosovo's independence, but a fatal chain reaction in the Balkans would be caused instead.

SERBIAN GOVERNMENT

Belgrade, May 3, 2004 - Serbian Prime Minister Vojislav Kostunica gave an interview to the latest edition of the German weekly Spiegel, in which he spoke about situation in Serbia, cooperation with the Hague tribunal and future of Kosovo-Metohija. The Serbian government's official web site brings excerpts from the interview.

Situation in Serbia:

Differences between political parties are normal in Western democracies as well. It is true that, when compared with other post-communist states, we lost many years due to wars, economic sanctions and isolation. But we inherited many problems from the former communist regime as well.

Cooperation with the Hague tribunal:

We have no other alternative but to cooperate with the Hague tribunal, regardless of what we or some international legal experts think about that court. However, we will fulfill our international obligation in the way which will neither jeopardise the country's political stability nor strengthen radicalism.

Law on financial assistance to Hague indictees:

Such a law exists both in Croatia and Bosnia-Herzegovina. This financial assistance should encourage the indictees who are at large to surrender voluntarily. Besides, the outcome of the Hague trials can have a long-term impact on Serbia, especially concerning war reparation claims by Croatia and Bosnia-Herzegovina before the International Court of Justice.

Indictees against four Serbian generals:

We want to be given an opportunity to try them in our own country.
Serbia has experience with conducting war crimes trials.

Work of the Hague tribunal:

It applies selective justice. Perhaps many years will have passed before we get the full picture of what really happened during the break-up of former Yugoslavia. The blame for that lies with communist oligarchs in the former republics, and with Europe for either encouraging Yugoslavia's disintegration, or doing nothing to prevent it.

From the present point of view, it is difficult to understand why the then Croatian president Tudjman or Bosnian president Izetbegovic have not been indicted by the tribunal. That is really strange: the Hague tribunal keeps some people in detention for years before trials begin, while it declares for others only after their death that they should have been indicted.

Expectations from Europe, especially from Germany:

We need assistance and investment, but first and foremost we need Europe's understanding for the process of democratic changes which now enters its second phase: strengthening of institutions in a strong law-governed state, with independent judiciary and resolute fight against corruption. To make up for the lost time, Serbia has been conducting these reforms without solid legal bases and in a revolutionary way. But in that way, democracy cannot be built.

Future of Kosovo:

A multiethnic community in Kosovo is not possible at the moment, but some kind of coexistence is. However, to achieve that, Kosovo needs tighter security measures and a suitable political solution. The problem would not be solved with Kosovo's independence, but a fatal chain reaction in the Balkans would be caused instead.

The Balkans must follow the path which Europe pursued after World War Two: keeping of the existing borders, real self-government and the rights of minorities, similar to those in Bosnia-Herzegovina.

If we do not want Kosovo soon to become as its capital Pristina is today, without a single Serb, the only alternative is autonomy for Serbs and non-Albanians, and their self-government. We are not talking about rights any more, but only about bare survival.

Talks with UNMIK chief Harri Holkeri:

We are trying to find a common formula in the talks with the UN administration in Kosovo, and later on with Kosovo Albanians as well.
Everything else except autonomy could have shameful consequences both for us and Europe as a whole.

On possible decision of the international community to back the division or independence of Kosovo:

The international community administers Kosovo. It has greater authority there than Kosovo institutions and Belgrade authorities. In 1991, the international community also had greater power than then communist elite in Belgrade, Zagreb and Sarajevo, and it blessed the break-up of Yugoslavia with its decisions in Maastricht. Therefore, it holds the major responsibility for what happened after the disintegration of Yugoslavia, and will be responsible for the future of Kosovo.

Kosovo-Metohija needs political solution

Serbian Prime Minister Vojislav Kostunica said at a summit of European centre-right prime ministers and leaders of the European People's Party (EPP), held in Dublin on May 1, that Kosovo-Metohija needs a peaceful political solution, within the framework of the United Nations Security Council Resolution 1244, which is of great importance for Serbia, the Balkans and Europe.

Belgrade, May 3, 2004 - Serbian Prime Minister Vojislav Kostunica said at a summit of European centre-right prime ministers and leaders of the European People's Party (EPP), held in Dublin on May 1, that Kosovo-Metohija needs a peaceful political solution, within the framework of the United Nations Security Council Resolution 1244, which is of great importance for Serbia, the Balkans and Europe.

Kostunica spoke at the summit about institutional problems Serbia and the state union of Serbia-Montenegro are faced with in the processes of strengthening of institutions and establishment of the law-abiding state and independent judiciary, as well as in the fight against corruption.

During his visit to Dublin, Kostunica met with Greek Prime Minister Kostas Karamanlis, Italian Prime Minister Silvio Berlusconi and former Hungarian Prime Minister Victor Orban.

In a separate meeting with Prime Minister of Croatia Ivo Sanader, Kostunica stressed the need for further normalisation of relations and improvement of cooperation between the two countries. He welcomed European Commission's positive evaluation of Croatia's EU candidacy, saying that Croatia has made the crucial step towards the European Union, which will be important for all other countries in the region that are not EU members.

Participants in the summit agreed that Europe changed already in the first phase, after the 1989 fall of the Berlin wall, as well as in the second, when it welcomed new EU member states. Kostunica said that the third phase will be when Europe becomes complete, embracing all European countries. On that occasion, he reiterated the Serbian government's firm commitment to European integrations, the Tanjug news agency reported.

The Kosovo We don't know

The Kosovo civil war continues, but this time the Albanian Muslims have the upper hand and the NATO/UNMIK forces appear incapable of intervention. Serbian Christians are being killed and driven from Kosovo. Christian churches and monasteries are being systematically destroyed. Kosovo, like Albania and Bosnia is being turned into an Islamic terrorist base. Crime is rampant and the economy, except for the drug-trade, is stagnant. Kosovo is moving toward independence as a Muslim state with plans for eventual union with Albania.

Tony Rubolotta
April 29, 2004

The recent killing of two Americans by a Jordanian, all serving with the UN police force (UNMIK) in Kosovo has temporarily brought the region to the front page, where the major media quickly linked the incident to Iraq, and then dropped Kosovo back into obscurity. The fact is things are not going well in Kosovo and the major media has several reasons for keeping the covers on the story.

What most Americans know about Kosovo is what Bill Clinton and his media cheering section told them in 1999. It was reported that Christian Serbs were engaged in a massive campaign of ethnic cleansing against Muslim Albanians. "Evidence" of a massacre in Racak was presented to back the claim. With popular, political and media support solidifying behind him, Clinton gave Serbia an ultimatum. Serbia refused, Clinton bombed, NATO occupied, the media reported and Hollywood even produced a few movies to further demonize the Serbs and fuel the propaganda.

With little or no news coming out of Kosovo now, we must assume that thanks to Bill Clinton, Kosovo is a thriving, peaceful democracy protecting the rights of all religious groups. Well, that's about as big a lie as what we were told about Kosovo in the first place. The Racak massacre was the breaking point Clinton used to rally support for the war. With hundreds of published articles about Racak, what do we really know about the "massacre"?

We know Serb forces engaged and defeated KLA forces in Racak in a classic firefight, an event witnessed by French and AP news crew on January 15. We don't know how many casualties were inflicted. The Serbs and news crew left and the KLA resumed control of Racak. The following day 45 bodies were found in a gully with the help of KLA guides. Forty victims were autopsied by a Finnish forensic team dispatched by the EU. The EU report refuted claims the victims were all shot at close range and mutilated. The report never used the word massacre and only found one victim shot at close range, maybe.

The Washington Post, claiming to have the EU report findings leaked by an "unidentified western source" wrote a story that misrepresented and extrapolated the findings. The Post claimed the forensic evidence proved the victims were executed in a massacre, which it did not. The head of the EU forensic team refuted the story. The AP and USA Today, not to be outdone by the Post, added detail and gore that was never proven. In contrast, Le Monde, with journalists at the scene, questioned the credibility of the entire scenario. They raised questions any good investigator should have asked, but were never answered.

With hundreds of articles on Racak, it doesn't take long to determine that most are biased one way or the other. Articles that stick to the facts are very short and few, because the facts are short and few. In the end, the evidentiary requirement we use to convict criminals, "beyond a reasonable doubt," was never met for Racak. None the less, the United States and NATO were going to war over an alleged, unproven and potentially staged massacre of 45 people.

Kosovo was having a civil war with about 2,000 casualties per year, about equally divided between the warring factions. What most Americans don't know is that the struggle dates back to 1389 when the Muslim Turks defeated the Christian Serbs and occupied Kosovo. Control of Kosovo has seesawed for 600 years, but it has been largely a history of persecuting Christians, first under the Turks and later by their Albanian successors. Atrocities occur during civil wars, but the scale of this war was a tempest in a teapot compared to other conflicts in the world.

What was the calculation and motivation for US involvement in the affairs of Serbia?

The calculation was simple. Bombing a Christian nation could be done with relative impunity. There would be no "Christian" outrage as there might be in the Muslim world if Serbia were Muslim. War on Serbia would endear us to Muslims for intervening on behalf of a Muslim cause. Milosovic was not that popular in Serbia and his support would melt away under pressure. Serbia, a moderately developed country, would provide a "target rich" environment. The Serbs, proud and protective of their culture, would submit to prevent its destruction. Popular support in the US and Europe would survive a short and apparently bloodless campaign.

Serbia was bombed and surrendered. Clinton claimed victory. NATO occupation forces moved in. The UN police force took their positions. Milosovic was put on trial. All was well in Kosovo and it dropped from the radar screen. Clinton's legacy as a champion of human rights, influential diplomat and great wartime president was secured. In fact, it was only secure as long as no one knew what was happening in Kosovo, hence the news blackout by the major media in the US and most, but not all of Europe.

The Kosovo civil war continues, but this time the Albanian Muslims have the upper hand and the NATO/UNMIK forces appear incapable of intervention. Serbian Christians are being killed and driven from Kosovo. Christian churches and monasteries are being systematically destroyed. Kosovo, like Albania and Bosnia is being turned into an Islamic terrorist base. Crime is rampant and the economy, except for the drug-trade, is stagnant. Kosovo is moving toward independence as a Muslim state with plans for eventual union with Albania. Investigation of Serb atrocities by the Hague War Crimes Tribunal have found the claims greatly exaggerated or non-existent. Kosovo will be a thorn in the side of Europe and the US as Muslim gratitude takes its usual turn toward hostility. The infidels served their purpose and are no longer useful.

And the motive for intervention in Kosovo? I don't think you have to look any further than the character of Bill Clinton and his media buddies.
