Issue 77 - March 15, 1993

The shot ,which echoed in the hallway of a building in Belgrade's Bulevar revolucije 44 at 8 o'clock in the morning of 9th of March, most probably came as no great surprise for the tenants, since the street dealers, who operate in the neighbourhood, are occasionaly taken by their whims

There is no doubt that the main question in Belgrade, and further, has lately been: who is next? In this regard it is less important which name will next be included in the chronicle of crime. The important thing is whether the next person to be accused will be able to point to the main target of the promised fight against corruption and crime

Slobodan Milosevic and Jezdimir Vasiljevic were out of the country on Thursday. That was one of the most nerve-wrecking days in the recent Serbian history.The assumptions were presented that Milosevic was almost definitely coming back, while Vasiljevic was unlikely to return. The course of the fight against crime in the state and economic leadership seems to have gotten out of hand. However, the hunt for thieves is still prominent, but it has yet to be seen for how long

If the Istanbul Patriarchate did not recognize the Croatian Orthodox Church in 1942, are there any special reasons why it should recognize the one urged by Kolaric?

The goal of the aforementioned draft law is to force Albanians weary of various maltreatment to choose between two evils: violence or agreeing to commit political suicide

The U.S. operation of parachuting aid, relies, on the one hand, on the latest technology, while on the other hand, its political dimension is relatively poor. Food was dropped from the skies to the Bosnian mountains via satellite, but there is still no hope of peace. VREME's special reporter was in the C-130 Hercules transport plane, the only journalist from the former and present Yugoslavia to take part in a relief flight over Eastern Bosnia

This is a double feature. The war film is at the end, and the gangster movie is just starting. We all know the killer from the very beginning, but we are not sure who is on the side of the law, who will get whom, and who we are rooting for

As if it was in a hurry to do the seasonal works, already on Thursday, the Serbian Parliament completed this week's session by playing dumb, like on all other occasions when something dramatic was happening

It is difficult to say now that Mr.Vasiljevic will experience yet another defeat in his showdown with his Montenegrin partners, but all the parameters point to the conclusion that this is precisely what could happen
