"Madam President, I wish to express our indignation at two recent events in the Balkans. The first is the arrest of the former President of Yugoslavia, Slobodan Milosevic, and the other is the imminent agreement between Bulgaria and NATO on free passage for NATO forces. The Americans, NATO and the European Union spent USD 100 million ousting President Milosevic. They spent another 100 million securing his arrest with a view to handing him over to the so-called Hague War Crimes Tribunal set up by the imperialists in order to justify their own crimes. Only nations have the right to judge their leaders, no one else. President Milosevic would not have been arrested had he followed NATO’s orders. Is this the punishment for resistance? Mind you, even those who gave the imperialists everything, such as the Former Yugoslav Republic of Macedonia, have to suffer armed intervention by the NATO elite. Developments in the Balkans clearly demonstrate that we have not yet seen the end of the war. Only once ΝΑΤΟ leaves the area will the people there be able to foster some hope of living in peace."@en1
