NEW YORK - The head of the permanent Yugoslav mission at the United Nations, Ambassador Vladislav Jovanovic, sent a letter on Thursday to Security Council President Sergei Lavrov underscoring the need for the return of a part of Yugoslav Army and police troops to Kosovo and Metohija in keeping with Security Council Resolution 1244.
In a separate protest letter to the Security Council President, Yugoslavia demanded this body's reaction to the illegal action of the U.S. contigent within the U.N. peacekeeping mission which, contrary to the decisions and determined policy of the resolution, started building a base in the territory of Kosovo and Metohija.
In the two letters, Yugoslavia recalled that a political solution to all issues linked to Serbia's southern Kosovo and Metohija province must be sought solely with the respect of the decisions contained in Resolution 1244, the Ahtisaari-Chernomyrdin Agreement, the Military-Technical Agreement and other relevant documents.
