There is little or no access to fuel or food. I believe that our amendment is both timely and necessary. Todays New York Times reports that United States intelligence experts estimate that 147.000 people could die in BosniaHercegovina this winter due to hunger and exposure to the elements. This figure is one of the more optimistic predictions because it assumes the winter will be a normal one. If the winter is harsh. the figure will most surely climb. our intelligence experts tell us. The U.N. High Commissioner on Refugees warns that under worst case conditions. the figure could reach 400.000. Mr. President. these figures are appalling.
