Henry Kissinger: 
Intervention in FRY did not solve anything 

 

 
                   Prague, January 22nd, 2000 (Beta) - 
                   The growing of the negative attitude 
                   towards the US in the world is not 
                   just an inevitable consequence of 
                   the increasingly dominant position 
                   of the only super-power, but also a 
                   consequence of the series of 
                   imprudent, hasty and biased foreign 
                   policy moves of the administration 
                   of President Bill Clinton - stated 
                   the former chief of the American 
                   diplomacy, Henry Kissinger. 

                   In an analysis published in the Prague daily "Lidove 
                   novini", Kissinger names the bombing of Yugoslavia as 
                   one of such moves. 

                   "Clinton's administration is ruled by emotions… this 
                   was clearly seen during the 78 days dedicated to the 
                   destruction of the Serbian infrastructure", the text reads, 
                   with the remark that "Serbia could not have been of any 
                   strategic threat to the US". 

                   "During the Kosovo crisis and after it, Washington and 
                   London sang praises to the foreign policy of 
                   humanitarian actions, as the modern alternative to the 
                   traditional diplomatic negotiations", reminded the 
                   former US Secretary of State. 

                   Kissinger pointed to the fact that the KLA was not 
                   disarmed, the society is not multi-ethnic, but just the 
                   opposite, "and the sovereignty of Yugoslavia could only 
                   be achieved by a bloody Serbian intervention". 

                   "The terms negotiated in Rambouillet… guarantied a 
                   huge bloodshed even before it started", reads the 
                   analysis. "These demands could not have been met even 
                   by a more reasonable Serbian regime", said Kissinger.
