Mr. President. during the past 4 months. Serbia has created the greatest flood of refugees in Europe since the end of World War II. It has achieved nearly complete success in cleansing Bosnia of Muslims and Croats. Thousands of Bosnians have been killed and nearly 1 4 million more fled their country. Some U.N. officials estimate that another 1 million may flee before Serbia is satisfied. Of these. perhaps half a million may face starvation this fall and winter. This calamity began back in June 1991 when the then Yugoslav Army began attacking Slovenia. Fortunately. many members of that army were reluctant to attack a newly independent country without a significant Serbian population.
