The Weight of Chains Page #3

Synopsis: The Weight of Chains is a Canadian documentary film that takes a critical look at the role that the US, NATO and the EU played in the tragic breakup of a once peaceful and prosperous European state - Yugoslavia. The film, bursting with rare stock footage never before seen by Western audiences, is a creative first-hand look at why the West intervened in the Yugoslav conflict, with an impressive roster of interviews with academics, diplomats, media personalities and ordinary citizens of the former Yugoslav republics. This film also presents positive stories from the Yugoslav wars - people helping each other regardless of their ethnic background, stories of bravery and self-sacrifice.

over 1100 companies industijskih is destroyed.

living standards fell by 18% between January and October 1990. year.

That decline was increased to 20% unemployment, and exacerbated tensions between the republics.

impoverished population is through this comprehensive reform measures of the IMF

which is why there is an increasing social and ethnic tensions.

So you get dissatisfaction with everyone everywhere

and all they asked for someone to blame.

In desperation, the Prime Minister, Markovic, visited Washington

where he met with President Bush. Markovic said that the growing tensions between the nations

a result of draconian economic measures and the privatization of

and asked for a billion dollars of assistance, He added: if aid does not arrive, it will be a problem.

And we all know that Americans did not want any trouble.

November 1990. year, President George Bush went to Congress in

where he put pressure to pass the law on foreign spending

which is demanded that all aid be suspended Yugoslavia.

This law also said that if some of the republics of Yugoslavia,

want further assistance from the United States, must break away and declare independence.

You understand? This is not conspiracy theory, not my speculation,

is not my analysis, it is state law. State law!

He demanded that the election procedures and results in each of the republics

be recognized by the United States.

Republic was required to maintain national elections are not

but that the elections are held only in individual republics.

Of course, the aid would go to individual republics. When assistance is given

it was given to groups that the U.S. administration considered 'democratic'

that. small right-wing, ultranationalist and even fascist parties.

The disintegration of Yugoslavia was not a consequence of the existing internal divisions.

These internal divisions have been increased due to foreign intervention.

Do 1991., Inflation has reached to 200% and the Yugoslav government,

has been unable to repay the huge interest on Foreign loans

or arrange the purchase of raw materials for industrial production.

Trust is destroyed and there were numerous accusations from all sides.

Co-operation between the republics and the central government in Belgrade has disappeared.

Republic did not receive money from the federal government,

or the Republic sent the tax money, so that the whole fiscal structure collapsed

and the Republic were left to cope alone, and thus created a new form of nationalism.

As the Americans are demanding, multi-party elections were carried out

and the economy was in the center of political debate, and the nationalist and separatist coalition

defeated the Communists in Croatia, Bosnia and Slovenia.

And in the republics that have worked each other on the head

and the economy and the nation are inherited together on the fatal descent. 269 ??00:22:41,982 -- 00:22:47,982 Of course, local politicians have worked to calm the people.

The people needed a hero to save them, someone who would wear their interests at heart

Instead, they are obtain these figures.

Alija Izetbegovic, who collaborated with the Nazis in the second World War

he was a candidate who had the vision for an Islamic Bosnia mostly Christian

like popagirao in his small book where he wrote:

"There is no peace or coexistence between Islamic faith and non-Islamic institutions."

Ali lost the election of a moderate Muslim leader Fikret Abdic.

However, the failure did not stop our Ali, and he made an agreement with Fikret

Ali to be president, and that a year leave the function.

However, faster than you can say that the 'Islamic Declaration'

Ali was able to extend its function due to crisis

Since you can have a fight for power in such tragic times.

In fact, Ali had a great chance to stop the war, when he signed the Treaty of Lisbon

Ali did not like this, he wanted all the power for themselves.

Fortunately for him, the Americans did not like the idea of ??peace.

So, the U.S. ambassador to Yugoslavia, Warren Zimmerman, arrived on the scene.

My office was at the meeting with Izetbegovic and Zimmerman.

Izetbegovic has just returned from Lisbon, and Zimmerman he says,

You could get a lot more recognition from the American If we just wait.

People in my office told me that at that time Ali was very surprised.

'If you do not like the agreement, why sign?

Ali listened to the American advice and withdrew his signature

solidified his power and Americans have to admit.

Another character who just loved his power, he was famous Slobodan Milosevic.

Sloba, as people called him, he knew how to use the people and get what she wants.

With a little luck and the help of his close friend Ivana, President of Serbia,

Sloba was dispatched to Kosovo in the 1987th where the Serbs felt threatened by the Albanians.

In the course of a conflict with the police, one Serb was asked why Slobo the police beat.

Sloba then with the right answer.

Thus he became a star overnight, the protector of all Serbs!

However, the case with the police was the only local character,

This is the character needed larger scenes. Since he was very grateful to my friend John,

it is removed from the post of president. Ten years later he was killed.

You may think that Sloba, after he became the new president, calmed down.

But no, he still longed for a larger scene, and lo 'lucky

big anniversary was approaching.

Serbs celebrated 600 years since the Battle of Kosovo, the core of their history and culture

waved the flag, Serbian, Yugoslavian, U.S.

and even Canadian, sang patriotic songs ... Sloba climbed on stage to give a speech

that the West is described as a nationalist call to war, and provoked the crowd.

Well, maybe I was not so inflammatory speech but at least by opera singers

after the speech was pretty cool.

But if you think that this guy had great ambitions

what you say about the character you are comparing with Jesus Christ ?

Mother dear. Rescuer of the Croatian people, Franjo Tudjman.

Opusteno. Francis won the election fair, but people around him were not particularly news

to cover up what was to happen later.

Even he does not believe any of these.

Francis government swiftly by illegal armed.

yes? And what's with this?

It was as if the war was the only option. However, a large number of people

has just said 'NO'.

'We just say give peace a chance! "

Yugoslavs are afraid to lose a lot if Yugoslavia broke up.

Fifty years have grown and lived together, got married

and the center of all this was Bosnia, with a mixed community of

Muslims, Serbs and Croats-in a word, a small Yugoslavia.

Mass anti-war demonstrations were held in Sarajevo, which had

the highest percentage of mixed marriages, with a message to politicians:

'Do not sacrifice peace for achieving political ambitions'

But, without much interest in maintaining complete Yugoslavia, politicians have decided
