PLATEAU GENERAL MORILLON

July 28, 1995 Guest on the panel: General Morillon, former commander of UNPROFOR and commander of the Rapid Reaction Force (RRF). He is wearing his military uniform. - MORILLON: "The fall of Zepa and Srebrenica was predictable. Bihac is more protected than these two towns. The fighting is taking place far from the city. There are no immediate threats to the city of Bihac. My trip to the United States was practically private since I was invited by an association. The lifting of the arms embargo by the United States would be catastrophic because it would lead to the withdrawal of the UN. This is what MLADIC wants, who could then attack Sarajevo. To be respected, you have to be strong, and we were not strong enough. I hope that the RRF will give force back its freedom of action. KARADZIC declared a state of war in Serbia to cut off the vital corridor for the Croats. His conviction and that of MLADIC for crimes against humanity by the International Court of Justice are long-awaited, but we must not demonize the Serbs as a whole. We must To show the Serbs that they have been led down the path of barbarism."
