We have warned Milosevic countless times to halt his fascist aggression. We have cooperated with our NATO allies. and with Russia. in fashioning a fair interim settlement for Kosovo. We know that if Milosevics scorchedearth policy of "ethnic cleansing" is allowed to continue. the inevitable result will be a massive tide of refugees. which would destabilize fragile democracies in Macedonia and Albania. We also know that Milosevic is itching for the excuse to overthrow the democratic and reformist government of Montenegro. which is a direct challenge to his authoritarian communist rule in Yugoslavia. We also know that the ultimate nightmarewhich is not impossible by any meansis a widening of the hostilities to include NATO members Greece and Turkey. who have different interests in this outcome.
