Russians Seek End to Orahovac Standoff in Kosovo
Russian officers met Albanian leaders at a Dutch base near Orahovac to urge compliance with the Helsinki peace plan. Albanians blockade roads to prevent Russian peacekeepers from entering, fearing pro Serb paramilitary protection and citing a history of Russian mercenary ties. Demonstrations continued as talks began, with Serbs also showing support for the Dutch mission. The standoff started when Russians moved to take over Dutch positions, and Albanians demanded NATO backed peace.
