With the growing United States involvement in the war/peace in Bosnia
the Department of Defense has entered the World Wide Web with their
own WWW page -
BosniaLINK - an up-to-date compilation of press releases, text of
speeches, briefings, maps of the scene, etc. in this war-torn region. This
site contains not only up-to-date information on the situation in the area
but also has links to other WWW sites with pertinent informaiton such as
the Department of State and the United Nations. You can be as up-to-date
as all the news services on the information being supplied to the media
by the various governmental agencies involved.
Now, in March of 1999, the crisis in Bosnia has somewhat cooled down but a greater crisis in the
Yugoslavia province of Kosovo has erupted and even threatens a new World War. There are still a
number of sites with information on this important area that can be reached on the Internet.
The Kosova Press, the voice of the Kosovo
Liberation Army, gives the facts from the perspective of the ethnic Albanian forces in Kosovo. That
is, of course, assuming the Serbian army has not shut them down yet.
The Kosova Crisis Center provides yet another
view of the crisis from the perspective of the ethnic Albanians in Kosovo.
Finally Radio Free Europe/Radio Liberation presents the
situation from the viewpoint of the NATO allies.
Radio Yougoslavia gives the Serbian
perspective of the crisis. Much of the information at this site is audio radio broadcasts (which can
be heard using "realAudio") in a number of languages including English.
Remember that this one is controled by the government of Serbia.
