Four. massive amounts of infrastructure supplies and communications equipment are needed at the border. along with people to assemble and operate. Five. there is a huge shortage of food and people are starving today. But once the influx of refugees ends. the problem of sustaining them for a longer period is no less critical. Six. refugees report that a vast number of houses and buildings and infrastructures have been destroyed. Every family said. "My house had been burned." "My house had been destroyed." We need to help them rebuild. and that will take a long time for them to return. Seven. it is doubtful that Kosovo can ever again be part of the Yugoslav Federation. It will take a long time to implement workable solutions. In time. Albanians will tire of having to deal with the refugees who infringe upon their normal life. Most Kosovo refugees have no documentation. no identity cards. no medical history. no records. This will take a long time to reconstruct. And everyone I spoke to said they want to go home. Lastly. we must do everything possible to help the suffering refugees. These victims of war have lost their homes. their livelihoods. and in many cases their identities. Additionally. having witnessed firsthand their struggle to survive and having seen their fear and their tears.
