Ending conflict in Kosovo
Article Abstract:
The North Atlantic Treaty Organization (NATO) is entering Kosovo, Yugoslavia, but this does not mean that conflicts have ended in the Balkan region. The Balkans area is characterized by ethnic rivalry, and there are also local warriors who can involve larger countries in their conflicts. Slobodan Milosevic remains in power in Yugoslavia, and this means that the conflict with NATO has not been settled. Greece supports aid for Serbia, but it is opposed by the US, which argues that first Milosevic has to be handed over to the International War Crimes Tribunal.

Coordination and defense of members' territories becomes more difficult as new members join. NATO is less able to present itself as a donor of military gifts following the Kosovo conflict. NATO can provide military aid in a number of ways, including training and advice on equipment.
