MACEDONIAN PM: WE ARE WITNESSING A MONSTER
ACTUALLY CREATED BY NATO In Macedonia,
leaders of ethnic Albanian political parties have rejected the peace
plan developed with the active participation of NATO and EU (the plan
envisages disarmament of the Albanian guerrillas with a simultaneous
insertion of the respective amendments in the Macedonian constitution.).
According to the Albanians, the measures suggested cannot stop the civil
war. So, further negotiations are being called into question. Availing
themselves of the truce, separatists are virtually taking control of the
country’s various regions, keeping government forces out. The same picture
could be seen at the final stage of the conflict in Kosovo. “NATO has
been too mild with terrorists and Albanian extremists,” says Ljupco
Georgievski, Macedonia’s prime minister. “What is going on around the
Albanian militants represents the “worst flirting by the international
community with terrorist groups we have ever seen.” According to Mr.
Georgijevski, “we are witnessing a monster actually created by NATO.” So,
NATO appears to hinder government troops’ efforts to oust the guerrillas
from the Macedonian territory.
