It has different plans in regards to Albanians. Anyway, considering that NATO s well-disposed to them in Kosovo, hardly anything would come of it. The situation on the Balkans commented on by Viktor Kremenyuk, deputy chief of the U.S. and Canada Institute NATO stands to lose from convening Balkan conference 15.21.2001, 17:21 NATO fails to meet its commitments to disarm Kosovo Albanians. If Kosovo Albanians are disarmed and a barrier is put up between Kosovo and Macedonia, Macedonians would easily neutralize their militants. The militants are not numerous and their force is not big. NATO does not fulfil these obligations and no one can compel it to do that - neither the UN Security Council, nor Russia. Therefore, if a conference is convened with the participation of Bulgaria, Greece and Yugoslavia - all countries having problems with Albanians - and if a question on its agenda is "what is to be done with these Albanians, a discussion would center on the Albanian issue in principle, and on Albania. It is a good idea, but I think NATO would not want that. It has different plans with regard to Albanians. Anyway, considering that NATO is well disposed to them in Kosovo, hardly anything would come of it. Macedonians today need "lean peace, which is better than fat victory," but I think they understand that shooting will not stop unless NATO blocks the corridors from Kosovo to Macedonia. __________________________________________________ Do You Yahoo!?
