Contents Summary
This program examines how the Western allies failed to bring an end to the war in the Balkans. Diplomatic efforts, including the London Conference, Lord Carrington's proposal and the failure of the Vance/Owen plan, are discussed by major political figures who were involved. "The Western peace emissaries discovered that the old communist mentality and apparatus live on in the former Yugoslavia and that deception has a pivotal role, thus they misread the aims and the tactics of Balkan politicians." Images shown: Vukovar, Dubrovnik (ITN), Sarajevo, Gorazde, Trnopolje, Bosanski Brod, Mladic, destroyed mosques, Knin, Srebrenica, Ahmici, and Milosevic and Tudjman having a drink together.
