Unhappy Transitions — Slobodan Milosevic

Slobodan Milosevic has died in prison in The Hague while on trial at the UN war crimes tribunal for genocide and other war crimes. He was 64 years old.

Mr. Milosevic was the leader of Yugoslavia when that government’s policies to some of its citizens led President Clinton to use NATO to force the Yugoslav armed forces to withdraw from the areas of contention.

Mr. Milosevic’s request to go to Russia for medical treatment was rejected last month. He had high blood pressure and a heart condition.
