War in Kosovo: Milosevic´s Bloody Track
Since 1989 the Serbian leader Slobodan Milosevic has always had a leading role in the painful dissolution of the Yugoslavian Federal Republic. With the NATO air strikes against Belgrade and the Serbian troops in Kosovo, Europe is witnessing now her first air battle since WW II. Without the employment of ground troops, however, the bombs of the NATO will not impress the Yugoslavian president. In fact, with the NATO attack, Milosevic has already killed two birds with one stone: While his people in Belgrade are distracted by the bombs and forced to back their unloved president, the closing down of communications and the lack of witnesses in the Kosovo province have given him the opportunity to finally carry out his ethnic cleansing program with all his might and cruelty.

Democracy in Yugoslavia: Milosevic´s Final Defeat
After four bloody conflicts Slobodan Milosevic, the “terror of the Balkans”, has met his final defeat. Sixteen months after his last war in Kosovo his criminal regime was finally swept away by a people´s revolt. Beaten in presidential elections by opposition leader Vojislav Kostunica, Milosevic has tried every trick to stay on, but when he ordered to annul the elections, the Serbian people marched upon Belgrade and stormed the Parliament. Yugoslavia´s new president Vojislav Kostunica was warmly welcomed by the European democratic leaders, who have quickly removed most sanctions against the country. But after the forthcoming elections in December the new democratic governments of Yugoslavia and Serbia have the difficult task to reconstruct the economy as well as the democratic institutions and a good neighborhood in the Balkans. First of all the new president must renegotiate the status of Montenegro and Kosovo, two regions trying to pull out of the Federation. Another critical question is the fate of the war criminals, first among them Milosevic, who would not like it to be processed at the Hague.

Elections in Serbia: Djindjic's Problem List
With parliamentary elections held on 23rd December Serbia has made an important step towards democracy, kicking away the remaining representatives of the Socialist regime and paving the way for a new breed of reform-minded leaders. After the triumph of presidential candidate Vojislav Kostunica over Slobodan Milosevic in October, parliamentary elections were now easily won by the new president’s allies of the Democratic Opposition of Serbia (DOS), an 18-party coalition which got 64% of the vote. DOS-leader Zoran Djindjic will be Serbia’s new prime minister. He will need all his political philosophy to rebuild his country’s institutions and economy as well as good friendship with the neighbors. Then a new economic union should be prepared in order to gain real stability for the Balkan region.

Croatia after Tudjman: New Chance for Democracy
Franjo Tudjman will probably be remembered in history as the father of Croatian independence. His secret pact with Slobodan Milosevic for the partition of Bosnia between Serbia and Croatia has given the signal for the definitive dissolution of former Yugoslavia. With his successful offensives against the Serbs castled in Krajina and Slavonia he has restabilized the territorial integrity of the Croatian Republic. But after ten years of quasi dictatorial regime president Tudjman's death in December 1999 has come as a relief for Croatia's democrats. In January parliamentary and presidential elections have sentenced the victory of the democratic opposition. State president in Zagreb is now Stipe Mesic. New prime minister is the Social Democrat Ivica Racan who has formed a center-left coalition. Both agree to drag Croatia away from Balkan absolutisms towards democracy and cooperation. After ten years of international isolation their ambition is joining the EU and NATO.

Bombing Yugoslavia: The Inexorable Logic of War
After six weeks of military conflict the news and pictures arriving from Yugoslavia and Albania have recalled to our memory that war means above all an endless chain of immense human suffering. Committing atrocities of all kind, the Serbian militia has expelled almost the whole Albanian population of Kosovo. Helping the refugees has therefore become the most important thing to do. While NATO bombs continue destroying Yugoslavia's infrastructure and economy, Milosevic's army has remained almost intact. NATO's last military option of sending in ground troops is risky for both military and political reasons. Anyway, it could become inevitable, if diplomatic efforts still lack success. Since too many things depend on the outcome of this conflict, NATO cannot give in half way, permitting Milosevic to save his regime. The noble Serbian nation has already paid an extremely high price for its leader's criminal plans. Will Milosevic understand or will he follow Hitler's footsteps, trying to carry his people to his own grave?

Peace in Kosovo: Rebuilding a Future for the Balkans
After 78 days of relentless aerial bombing peace has finally arrived for the harassed populations of former Yugoslavia. On 10th June NATO-airplanes have finally stopped their raids against Yugoslavian military and infrastructure, while the Serbian troops have started to retreat from the Kosovo province, accompanied by many Kosovar Serbs who fear the revenge of the Albanians. Peacekeepers (K-For) from NATO countries and from Russia have occupied the province and the Kosovar refugees are returning to their homes. But many questions remain still unsolved: Can peace be guaranteed by the Kosovo-Force and will the cooperation between NATO and Russian forces work ? How many Kosovar civilians were slain by the Serbian militia during the conflict ? Can the murderers be put on trial ? Is a peaceful living together of Serbs and Kosovar Albanians still possible ? What will be the future status of Kosovo ? Will Serbia find the way to a democratic regime ? What will be the destiny of Slobodan Milosevic ? Who will pay for the reconstruction of the destroyed countries ? Which impact will this war have on the international system and especially on the relations between the European Union, the United States and Russia ?
