Third. the United States has made great efforts to try to mitigate the consequences of the catastrophe for the people of the area. To this end we have contributed more than any other country to the international relief effort. We have initiated air drops that provide the only supplies for isolated communities. And we are trying to alleviate the refugee burden on Croatia and other countries by resettling Bosnians in the United States. As a fourth part of our strategy. the United States insists on an end to the killing in Bosnia. To this end. we are prepared to take all necessary steps including now. in the case of Sarajevo. the use of force.
