NATO spells withdrawal terms for Kosovo in Macedonia talks
At a Macedonian coffeehouse near the Kosovo border NATO outlined to Yugoslav generals the withdrawal conditions for Serb troops, a key step to halt airstrikes. Talks adjourned after five hours as Yugoslavs sought higher-authority approval, with a Sunday restart planned at Kumanovo base. Meanwhile Serb shelling near the Albanian border wounded and killed civilians, and OSCE reported casualties in Kruma and Nikolig. NATO noted no timetable and reserved the option to resume bombing until withdrawal is complete.
