Yugoslavia moves to prolong Milosevic's rule
Belgrade AP reports Yugoslavia's parliament approved constitutional changes to allow President Slobodan Milosevic to seek re election when his term ends next year. The vote also alters the upper house election, potentially weakening Montenegro's influence and accelerating Montenegrin moves toward independence. Montenegro warned it may ignore federal decisions as it considers laws to wrap up independence. The upper chamber will now see direct election of its 20 Serbian and 20 Montenegrin deputies.
