Delorca > Committee of the Appeal of Brussels > > ----------------------- > KOSOVO must not be forgotten: > > BRUSSELS APPEAL > > In the spring of 1999 Brussels, as the headquarters of NATO, was the > centre of decision and execution of the bombing of Yugoslavia by the 19 > member nations of that organisation in the name of human rights. We, > active > in or retired from the teaching of law, believe that the first > anniversary > of such a serious event must not go unnoticed, but on the contrary should > induce every citizen to think seriously about the enormous stakes. > > The war was prepared, decided and prosecuted against the most > fundamental > principles of international law. > NATO decided to take action after the Rambouillet talks broke down. And > yet these talks had made serious progress of the political issues before > last minute conditions, which were totally unacceptable to the Serbs, > led to an impasse. In other words, to war. > The outbreak of the war was a flagrant violation of the United Nations > Charter, which authorises the use of force only in exceptional cases of > legitimate self-defence or with the authorisation of the Security Council. > There were no such premises, in this case. > Finally, the way in which the bombing was carried out violates the rules > of international law which govern the conduct of hostilities. In > general, > the systematic destruction of the economic infrastructure and the means > of > communication, deliberately intended to discourage the population and > provoke an uprising, are incompatible with the humanitarian principles > invoked to justify them. > > That said, our wishing to express our unequivocal and unreserved > condemnation of the action taken by NATO in no way implies any support of > or complacency towards the Belgrade authorities and in particular their > management of the ethnic question. Similarly, our sustained reprobation > of > the continuation, without any legal grounds, of the bombing of Iraq and > the > embargo imposed on this country, must not be interpreted as any > allegiance > to the Baghdad regime. > The war strategy that devastated Yugoslavia and made Kosovo non-liveable > produced more refugees and victims than would have been caused by any > other > combination of force and diplomacy. So it must be contested, both > from the political and the moral point of view. It was accompanied by a > media campaign to systematically legitimise the operations under way. > The arrangements made at the end of the bombing are intended to make > international aid contingent to the results of elections in Yugoslavia > and > make aid contingent on the political options adopted by its > beneficiaries, which is not a very honourable means of political > interventions in the internal affairs of a third country. For its part, > under the UN administration created in Kosovo following the NATO > aggression, > this region has become a virtually mono-ethnical one, where non-Albanian > minorities, be they Serbs, Gypsies, Slavs, Muslims, Jews, Turks or Croats, > had to flee from attacks or take refuge in ghettos. > We should also like to underscore the fact that the consequences of the > war waged in Yugoslavia extend far beyond the borders of this country. > More specifically, NATO's intervention in Kosovo, under the leadership > of > the United States, is in line with a series of choices made by the sole > remaining superpower. Its gargantuan military budget; keeping NATO in > place, in spite of the dissolution of the Warsaw Pact and the end of the > USSR, and even to enlarge it by including Eastern Europe; projecting > armed > force on the world arena by treating international institutions with > disdain; refusing to ratify the nuclear test ban treat; developing > anti-missile systems and, as recently discovered, a world-wide system for > eavesdropping on private and official calls are the most salient aspects > of > a new model for exercising power charted in Washington, based solely on > the > possession and use of ever more sophisticated instruments of coercion. > That is why we call on all those who share these concerns and no longer > wish to see bombs as the alternative to international law, negotiations, > and > democratic dialogue, to sign this appeal and turn it, everywhere in the > world, into an instrument of moral resistance against the new world > "order" > that is emerging. > First signatories, > > Olivier Corten, Professor at the Centre for International Law, Free > University of Brussels (ULB); Eric David, Professor at the ULB; Barbara > Delcourt, member of the Institute of European Studies, Professor at the > ULB; > Fran�ois Houtart, Professor Emeritus at the Catholic University of > Louvain > (UCL); > Pierre Klein, Professor at the ULB; Paulette Pierson-Mathy, > Professor at the ULB; Yves Rogister, Researcher at the CADOP, University > of Li�ge; > Fran�ois Rigaux, Professor Emeritus at the UCL, former Dean of the > Faculty > of Law; > Jean Salmon, Professor Emeritus at the ULB ; > Eric Suy, Professor Emeritus at the KUL ; former assistant general > secretary of the United Nations." > > If you want to adhere to the Appeal, please send your name to: > CETRI > 5, Av.
