Russia blames UN tribunal for Milosevic death
The lower house of the Russian parliament today harshly criticised the UN War Crimes Tribunal, blaming it for Slobodan Milosevic’s death and calling for its quick closure.
The State Duma voted unanimously to approve a statement that accused the tribunal of being “extremely politicised and biased” in its inquiries and said that its failure to provide Milosevic with adequate medical care led to the former Yugoslav president’s death on Saturday.
