The verdict - not guilty - first and then the investigation. And the defendant, not the judge, renders the verdict...Now that's the kind of justice NATO can deal with! ____________________________________ U.N. prosecutor will meet NATO officials to discuss war crimes allegations Associated Press THE HAGUE, Netherlands (January 12, 2000 9:31 a.m. EST http://www.nandotimes.com) - U.N. chief prosecutor Carla del Ponte will travel to NATO headquarters next week and is likely to discuss allegations that the alliance violated international laws in its air strikes against Yugoslavia, her spokesman said Wednesday. The prosecutor's office disclosed in December that her staff at the Yugoslav war crimes tribunal had completed a confidential report on NATO's bombing last spring. Del Ponte later insisted there was no formal investigation or prosecution under way. The disclosure prompted a stern warning from Washington that the tribunal should keep its hands off NATO, and created concerns among legal experts that the prosecutor might buckle under pressure to quash the report's findings. During next Wednesday's visit to NATO offices in Belgium, Del Ponte will meet NATO Secretary-General George Robertson and take questions from the North Atlantic Council, the alliance's policy-making body, said Del Ponte's spokesman, Paul Risley. "I certainly expect that issue will come up," Risley told reporters, referring to the NATO report. The report looks into charges that the 19-nation alliance, led by the United States, violated international treaties in the 78-day air offensive that forced Yugoslav President Slobodan Milosevic to halt his crackdown on ethnic Albanians in Kosovo. NATO bombs killed scores of civilians. Del Ponte, a former Swiss federal prosecutor, has said she will press NATO to step up its efforts in Bosnia to arrest more suspects wanted by the tribunal. ______________________________________________________________________ To unsubscribe, write to [EMAIL PROTECTED] ______________________________________________________________________ Applying to college this year?
