Gligorov had told him that “Albanians are not like Bosniaks” and that “they don't last, will fight”.
Macedonian President Kiro Gligorov called me and said: You know, you will have a big problem in Kosovo. War will be fought there because Albanians are not like Bosniaks -- they do not endure. They will fight. And so it happened, fighting started”, says Clark in this conversation.
Further, it shows how Ambassador Richard Hoblroke had gone to June 1999 for a meeting with Slobodan Milosevic.
He gave me a phone call to Milosevic, whom I knew from Dayton's time, and I said: Please don't do this to the Albanian people. He told me: General Clark, these are my people. I won't hurt you. Of course, that was a lie, because ethnic cleansing was already happening”, Clark declared.
