Serbian President speaking with a Greek reporter: ATHENS - The Balkans should be left to its peoples, and they do not need any intervention by big powers. If they leave us in peace, we will find a common language and reach agreement on all issues. This is the only condition for a better future of the region, Serbian President Milan Milutinovic said in an interview published Saturday by Greek daily Ta Nea. The people of Yugoslavia are united today more than ever, Milutinovic said. We are attacked daily by 200 or 300 aircraft, but we are defending ourselves. They have so far carried out over 2,000 sorties, claiming they were attacking only military targets.. However, their targets are also our industries, hospitals, schools, bridges... Devastation is tremendous and the population is suffering the most. But we are fighting for our homeland with all our power as we have no other choice but to perservere and win, Milutinovic said. The people of Yugoslavia are happy to see the Greek people among the first to oppose the bombardment, Milutinovic said. The people of Greece supported us from the outset, speaking their mind clearly. I believe that the role played by Greece is precious and that Greece must raise its voice even higher against the aggression to which we are subjected, not only for our sake but also for its own and that of all other countries in the region, as one never knows who the next victim will be, Milutinovic said. The world nevertheless undestands what is happening, even the governments of countries taking part in the aggression, but they do not speak openly although they know that we are right. This does not, however, absolve them from being held accountable, Milutinovic said. They are thus violating the international order and international law, demonstrating that the UN practically no longer exists, Milutinovic said.
