Sofia. In 1993 Bulgarian President at the time Zhelyu Zhelev suggested
that NATO bombs former Yugoslavia in order to stop interethnic
conflicts there. This was said by Zhelyu Zhelev himself, during his
lecture "Moral in Politics", delivered during the World Seminar of the
Liberal Youth Organizations on topic 'Youth and Politics – Major
Factor in Democratic Decision Making", Darik radio announced.
Former Bulgarian President made that suggestion on 17 April 1993
during a lecture before activists of the Republican party in
Washington, organized by the Carnegie Foundation. The Alliance starts
air strikes 6 years later, when the regime of Slobodan Miloshevich was
put to an end.
"Then, in 1993, in April, the war was already a fact in the whole
territory of Former Yugoslavia. I suggested that NATO should interfere
by force, aviation in order to make both sides to stop war actions.
And also by force to make them sit on the negotiation table", he said.
