"Washington Post" publishes an interview with Zivadin Jovanovic
April 24, 1999
We are ready to defend our country and will succeed in doing so, minister said adding that NATO's attempt to deploy the ground troops would be another misjudgment of those whose estimations already showed wrong. Vietnam would be nothing comparing to what would America risk by starting such a war, minister Jovanovic says. Answering the question of the "Washington Post" journalist considering the international presence on Kosovo Yugoslav foreign minister says that Yugoslavia is ready to accept the international supervision of returning of the refugees but those troops couldn't be armed nor they could include the soldiers of the NATO member-states. "Washington Post" publishes that the Yugoslav foreign Minster accused NATO of calculated plan to destroy the Yugoslav economy and the political institutions. Yugoslav government advocates for the political solution, the Washington daily says adding that the talks with Dr. Ibrahim Rugova are still on.
"Washington Post" reporter Michael Doubts stresses at the beginning of the article that the interview was taken in Belgrade, in the Yugoslav Foreign Ministry building, what was obviously a remark addressed to the American readers which was to assure them that in Yugoslavia, under the NATO aggression, foreign journalists are able to carry on with their duties and that they have an access to the informations as well as to the officials.
