'If the Kosovo talks don't work, then we'll all join the KLA.'
Article Abstract:
It is clear that merely negotiating will not bring an end to the conflict in Kosovo, Yugoslavia, between Serbs and ethnic Albanians, according to Gani Gecaj, a member of the Kosovo Liberation Army (KLA). His brother Fadil remains more in favour of negotiating, and is a leading member in his area of the Democratic League of Kosovo, which has consistently called for a peaceful solution to the conflict. However, he admits that the KLA has made the situation in Kosovo change more rapidly. He expresses the view that it will be necessary to support the KLA if the international community cannot bring about a negotiated settlement.

Serb civilians killed as bad blood flows
Article Abstract:

More than 70 Serbs have taken refuge in the town's seminary, where they are guarded by German soldiers from K-For. Those who remain in their homes must endure constant threats, looting and beatings. Local ethnic Albanians report that the attacks on the Serbs are being carried out by outsiders.
