U.S.
and Europe rivalry continues to explode in the Balkans as Serbian prime
minister killed
Yugoslavia is one of the countries
through which the oil and gas pipeline from the central Asian republics
in the former Soviet Union flows to Europe. The U.S. and Europe, led by
the German-Franco alliance, are competing for control of Yugoslavia. They
both supported the break up of the former republic but without agreeing
on how to share the spoils.
Germany supported the secession
of Croatia and Slovenia, whilst the U.S. supported the secession of Bosnia,
as well, from the federal republic of Yugoslavia.
Between 1999 and 2003, the
U.S. has been using the terrorist Kosovo Liberation Army (KLA) to further
break up Yugoslavia. The CIA encouraged the KLA terrorists to attack southern
Serbia, Macedonia and Montenegro, which are all republics of the former
Yugoslavia federal republic.
In addition to this, the U.S.
bombed Serbia, destroying the Chinese embassy, Serbian roads, bridges,
television and radios stations, and oil tankers. Thousands of innocent
civilians were killed. This aggression against Serbia resulted in the
kidnapping of Sobodan Milosevic and his imprisonment in The Hague in Holland.
He is charged with war crimes against humanity.
This aggression against Serbia
has resulted in the fracturing of the Serbian society, with the nationalists
led by Milosevic on the one side and the pro-Westerners led by Zoran Djindjic
and Kostunica, the actual president of Serbia, on the other side. This
last tendency itself is split between pro-Europe and pro-U.S. forces.
The assassination of Prime
Minister Zoran Djindjic in the government car park on March 12, 2003 is
a reflection of the power struggle for control of State power inside the
Serbian ruling class.
It is said that the Milosevic
camp is taking revenge against those who sold him to the imperialist rulers
in The Hague international world tribunal. The suspect, Zvezdan Jovanovic,
a member of the special elite troops known as the Red Berets created by
Milosevic, was arrested on March 25. More than 1,000 people have been
arrested, including several members of the Red Berets, judges, policemen
and members of the Secret Service, including Jovica Stanisic, former chief
of the Milosevic security and Franko “Frenki” Simatovic, former
commander of the Red Berets, as well as other sympathizers of Milosevic.
The daughter-in-law of Milosevic
has been placed under house arrest. The Red Berets special operation units,
known as JSO, are being dismantled. A state of emergency has been enforced
since the assassination.
The Western press is presenting
these forces as part of organized crime and members of some powerful clan
bent to a life of crimes.
The U.S. wants to keep NATO
in Europe to maintain U.S. hegemony in Europe, and to maintain and extend
its military superiority over Europe.
France and Germany want a European
army that will allow them to muscle in their diplomatic goals in Europe
and around the world.
U.S. strategists see the end
and replacement of NATO by a European army as a challenge to U.S. hegemony
in the world. Control of the Balkans is hotly contested between the U.S.
and the Franco-German alliance, as part of the struggle for domination
of Europe.
It appears that the white imperialist
rulers want to have a Serbia run by either supporters of Europe or supporters
of the U.S., but not by Serbian nationalists.
The alliance between the CIA
and the Kosovo Liberation Army, which wants self-determination for Albanians
of Kosovo, is worth noting. The KLA would unite with Albania to form the
greater Albania. According to the German press, Albanians from Kosovo
have become a serious force in distributing drugs in Western Europe.
It is our view in the African
People’s Socialist Party that the Serbian nationalists who want to
see a free Serbia and peace in the Balkans have to join the rest of the
non-white world and fight against white power led by the U.S. and Europe.
They have to turn their back
on any form of white nationalism that requires the theft of the resources
of Africans, Arabs, Asians and the populations of South and Central America
for their existence. Anything else is just the status quo, peace with
imperialism, the sharing of our stolen resources by white rulers with
white people.
Uhuru!
