They say that Mr Milosevic is the victim of an illegal violation of Yugoslavia's sovereignty and is an example of Nato countries imposing a philosophy of might-is-right. Echoing the argument that the deposed president himself made before the tribunal, the letter says it is Nato's leaders who should be in the dock for their bombing of Yugoslavia two years ago. A BBC correspondent in Athens says the arguments made by Mikis Theodorakis and the other campaigners anticipate what will be said in court during the trial itself next year. Signed by: G. Vavouras M.
