According to high-ranking Yugoslav military sources, the Albanians are trapped by a discriminatory regime. Are they prepared for war? The action in Kosovo changes from Ambassador Majorski, while Hill tells Fornet to withdraw Kosovo's status after three years in Kosovo, while the army changes from Ambassador Majorski, while Hill tells Fornet to withdraw Kosovo's status after three years According to high-ranking Yugoslav military sources, the Albanians are trapped by a discriminatory regime. Are they prepared for war? Boogart sent the Kosovo Albanian delegation to Paris yesterday from Rambouillet The culprit must be found! By Mero BAZE Rambouillet, 19 February Even after the political part was signed by the Kosovo Albanian delegation, matters have not been resolved. On the contrary, the situation is becoming more complex. This morning the Albanian delegation did not take part in the next meeting with the mediators. This happened after yesterday, following 17 hours of intense negotiations, they signed a declaration expressing their readiness to sign the final agreement for Kosovo after two weeks of consultations with the people and the political and military structures in Kosovo. After this act, which represented an important step, a strong debate erupted in the Albanian camp. Some described it as a diplomatic victory, while others as a concession to international pressure. Sources close to the talks said the mediators tried to maintain a balance between the Albanian demands and the Serbian refusal to accept NATO's military presence in Kosovo. In the evening, after the announcement that the Albanian delegation had accepted the political text, critical voices increased. According to high-ranking Yugoslav military sources, the Albanians are seen as blocked by a discriminatory regime, but at the same time as a party that must decide whether it is ready to enter into an open conflict. In this context, the question being raised is whether the Rambouillet process is producing an agreement or pushing the parties toward a new clash. In diplomatic circles, information also circulated yesterday that Ambassador Majorski had changed his stance on developments in Kosovo, while Christopher Hill had conveyed to Fornet the idea that Kosovo's status should be reviewed after three years. These moves were interpreted as part of a compromise formula aimed at postponing the final solution, leaving many questions open regarding security and implementation on the ground. The Albanians in Rambouillet remain faced with the dilemma: accept an open process with partial guarantees, or face the risk of an open conflict. Today's developments are expected to be decisive for the fate of the talks and for the future of Kosovo. ON PAGE 6

The talks warn the great powers not to play with Kosovo's independence This variant proposed by the Contact Group is unacceptable for Kosovo. First, a large part of the delegation, which represents the country's political and military forces, sees it as a loss of independence. Second, any solution that leaves Kosovo under Serbian sovereignty is seen as unacceptable by Albanian public opinion. Political sources said yesterday that the Albanians present in the talks are trying to preserve unity, but international pressure is mounting. In their statements, they stressed that no legitimate representative can be found who would sign away Kosovo's independence. ON PAGE 3

By Mero BAZE Rambouillet, 19 February According to high-ranking Yugoslav military sources, the Albanians are blocked by a discriminatory regime and a large part of them are seen as a party ready for war. In a situation where the negotiations are taking place under strong international pressure, every move by the delegation is interpreted as a sign of future positioning. In the corridors of the talks, the question is circulating of who will bear responsibility if the process fails. The Albanians do not accept signing away independence, while the Serbs reject the security guarantees required for the implementation of the agreement. This political and diplomatic tension keeps the fate of Rambouillet unclear.
