Milosevic to answer genocide charges

Slobodan Milosevic is due to finally tell his story today at the United Nations war crimes tribunal, giving him a chance to rebut allegations that he masterminded a ruthless campaign of murder and expulsion in the Balkans in his quest to create a ‘‘Greater Serbia’’.

On the third day of his trial, the former Yugoslav president will begin his response to an exhaustive two-day recital of horrors by the prosecution.
