...that he would accept a U.N. force in Kosovo, albeit small and lightly armed. NATO has also rightly involved Russia in the diplomatic process, perhaps to make amends for excluding Russia at the start of the conflictnand should include in the diplomatic process the concerns of neighbors such as Montenegro and Macedonia and of nearby NATO members such as Hungary, Italy, and Greece...
...that easy for NATO to "intensify" the air-only war as it promises. Over considerable resistance, Clinton barely talked NATO into approving plans for a naval embargo to cut off oil supplies to Serbia, and no one wants to hurt Western-leaning Montenegro, where the main Yugoslav port is, in the process. The low-risk, high-altitude bombing cannot grow markedly more effective unless the allies are willing to accept more casualties--theirs and ours. The Apache gunships are dribbling into Albania to begin their closer-to-the-ground war against nearly 400 Serbian tanks and armored personnel carriers...
...murderous actions of the Serb nationalists in Kosovo pose a threat to all Europe [KOSOVO CRISIS, April 12].

Though Montenegro is linked to Serbia by a federal agreement, the state was slowly inching toward democracy--something most locals think Slobodan Milosevic wants to end. Already the streets are kind of pre-battlegrounds, where soldiers loyal to Milosevic vie with police for strategic positions, each nervously waiting for the spark that will make them turn their guns on one another. Political leaders are scrambling to get their families...
