Why aren't we seeing pictures of the Serbian children wounded by our bombs on the news? Taken from web site at: http://www2.startribune.com/stOnLine/cgi-bin/article?thisStory=70850512 To be published Sunday, April 11, 1999 Yugoslav official says bombings have killed 300 civilians New York Times BELGRADE, YUGOSLAVIA -- Serious talks are underway to create an interim government for Kosovo, a senior Yugoslav official said Saturday. He also said that more than 300 civilians have been killed and nearly 3,000 wounded in the NATO bombings. Those are the most concrete figures for civilian casualties to emerge since the airstrikes began, but they cannot be independently confirmed. There has been virtually no information about Yugoslav military casualties, which are considered a state secret. The official also said that moderate ethnic Albanian leader Ibrahim Rugova is continuing talks with top Yugoslav officials on an interim political solution. The official said Rugova met Friday in Pristina with two deputy prime ministers, Nikola Sainovic and Ratko Markovic. The official, Nebojsa Vujovic, was the top-ranking Yugoslav diplomat in Washington and lived there for nine years before the war began and Belgrade broke relations with the United States and several other NATO countries. He has just been appointed spokesman for the Yugoslav Foreign Ministry. Despite "NATO propaganda and lies" that Rugova is being held against his will and forced into discussions, Vujovic said, "Dr. Rugova is not a hostage -- he's a free man who feels the heartbeat of his people. "His talks with us pull the rug out from under the aggressors," Vujovic said, referring to NATO. President Clinton and other NATO leaders say the bombing will go on until the Serbs agree to provide Kosovo with a full measure of autonomy under the protection of an international security force. Before the bombing began, Belgrade rejected the idea of 28,000 NATO-led troops policing a peace plan in Kosovo. The talks concern "an interim government with joint institutions of self-government representing all ethnic groups and covering all branches of the local Serbian government," including the police, Vujovic said. The concept of an interim government with representation by Serbs and Albanians has been agreed upon, based on a framework for autonomy, he said, without adding details. But he said the framework was not specifically based on "the Rambouillet process," referring to negotiations in France earlier this year that produced a Western draft plan for far-reaching Kosovar autonomy. The plan was accepted by the ethnic Albanian delegation, including Rugova, but rejected by the Serbian delegation. "Rambouillet was just a grand masquerade, not a real process of negotiation," Vujovic said. "Dr. Rugova was there but was just pushed aside, even though he had been earlier received at the White House and the State Department at the highest level, and the French gave him a medal. But the U.S. found a new alliance with the Kosovo Liberation Army, and Rugova's aware of that and aware of what that situation has brought the ordinary Albanians of Kosovo." Asked whether a correspondent could interview Rugova, Vujovic said, "That time may come," but he insisted that Yugoslav authorities had concerns for Rugova's safety. � Copyright 1999 Star Tribune.
