Yugoslavia crisis deepens as Ljubljana defies crackdown
The Yugoslav eight member presidency led by Stipe Mesic planned an emergency session in Ljubljana to defuse the crisis. The European Community warned Markovic it would freeze aid unless federal troops withdrew. In Ljubljana Kucan said the army crackdown means Yugoslavia cannot be put back together. Serb officers dominate the army and a replacement commander from Serbia was named. Observers note inept command and a weak federal army facing a trained Slovenian militia. Deserts and shortages widen as Slovenia cuts power and water to bases. Serbia seeks a strong central government while Slovenia and Croatia push toward loose sovereign states.
