STATEMENT

 

          In the center of the attention of the World today is the struggle against terrorism. However, this phenomenon cannot be considered connected to the terrorist acts in the USA only, without taking in consideration the circumstances of growing terrorism in the Balkans. In Kosovo in 1998-1999 there was no violation of the rights of the national minorities in the way  western politicians  and media  have presented. The World has faced the aggressive armed separatism that chose terror as its main weapon.

           The Albanian terrorist army - KLA, having got in 1998 a wide support from the USA and its allies, participated in the NATO aggression against Yugoslavia. At the same time, KLA was having direct  links with the international terrorist network. Osama Bin Laden has been in 1998 in Albania.  The American representative R. Hollbrooke was informed about that.

          The tragic events in Bosnia, Kosovo, Chechnya, Macedonia, New York -  are all links in the same chain. The terrorist acts there have been organized by the very same forces.

          At the very source of these events are the USA, that have trained, financed and armed the international terrorist network and gave it its political and military support. Now, when the Americans are calling the World to unite in the struggle against terror, they should be looking for the roots of this phenomenon in their own house first  - in Washington.

          On the other side, President Slobodan Milosevic has fought namely against terrorism defending the people of his country, including the Albanians as well. Nevertheless, the open support of the West to Albanian terrorism, the demonization of Serbia and of Slobodan Milosevic, have brought to the defeat of antiterrorist forces in the FRY and to turmoils in Macedonia.

          The World community, considering the circumstances, should reconsider its own assessments on the events in Yugoslavia.

We call upon the Parliaments and Governments of the member-countries of the United Nations Security Council with the appeal that the so-called International Criminal Tribunal  for  Former Yugoslavia (ICTY), founded in violation of the UN Charter, stops its activities. That so-called tribunal is in fact defending Albanian extremists who have committed monstrous crimes in Kosovo. ICTY has not  presented not even one charge against Kosovo Albanians who have committed crimes against humanity.

          We demand for a halt of the persecution of President Milosevic and his fellow-fighters who fought against terrorism, for safeguarding the integrity of the country in full accordance with the FRY Constitution.

          Slobodan Milosevic, who has been at the forefront of the resistance to terrorism in the Balkans,  must be freed immediately.

A. A. Zinovyev

        Chairman
