It is easy to demonise Milosevic and cast the Serb leadership in the role of villains. Milosevic was not the only leader in the Balkans with blood on his hands.

The NATO bombings were a direct consequence of an oversimplified view of that complex and deep-seated conflict. Thousands of civilians were killed and the environmental damage, especially to the Danube, is still untold. To what purpose?

The next blunder about to be made is to start serious negotiations with Croatia for EU membership before a long-term settlement to the Kosovo and Bosnia situations is reached.
