The longer we wait. the more powerless NATO appears. and the more convinced these people are that they have nothing to fear. But until that happens. at the very least. we should not give aid to governments that harbor war criminals. especially considering that they pledged to cooperate fully with the War Crimes Tribunal. That is the purpose of this legislationto deny aid to governments of the former Yugoslavia until they arrest and turn over indicted war criminals who are within territory under that control. or to projects in communities whose local authorities are protecting war criminals or preventing refugees from returning home. Frankly. that should already be U.S. Government policy.
