It sounds as though the occupiers want to sell off the assets and keep the money, but make FRY responsible for the debts!

One-sided privatization. Recall that one of the first initiatives of UNMIK immediately after NATO troops took over the Serbian province of Kosovo in 1999 was, responding to a 'study' commissioned by the National Endowment For Democracy/George Soros Open Society Institute-funded International Crisis Group (also based in Brussels), was for then UNMIK head Bernard Kouchner to send NATO troops into the Trepca Mining Complex, perhaps the largest in Europe, to take it over and sell it off to foreign interests - reputedly to a Soros-controlled concern.

Chief of the state committee in charge of the province, Nebojsa Covic, said the plan was rejected at a meeting of Serbian finance and privatization ministers, chiefs of the Serbian Privatization Agency and federal and Serbian property directorates. "We gave our objections and finance and privatization ministers are now in charge of reaching an agreement with UNMIK on the concept," said Covic, a Serbian deputy premier. --------------------------- ANTI-NATO INFORMATION LIST ==^================================================================ This email was sent to: archive@jab.org EASY UNSUBSCRIBE click here: http://topica.com/u/?a84x2u.a9617B Or send an email to: [EMAIL PROTECTED] T O P I C A -- Register now to manage your mail! http://www.topica.com/partner/tag02/register ==^================================================================
