Maximum impact on Milosevic. minimum impact on us. But it was a tough decision to make. and I am under no illusion that this is going to automatically get us to where we want to go in terms of our policies in the Balkans. May I say that we have a major humanitarian interest in providing effective relief for the refugees and preventing further atrocities against civilians by the Milosevic regime. We certainly have a strong interest in stopping the spread of this conflict to the surrounding countries in this historically unstable region. I find it interesting that the century opened in 1914 with a Serb nationalist assassinating Archduke Ferdinand and that led to the guns of August in 1914.
