NATO and The Hague

U.N. war crimes prosecutor Louise Arbour met a group of international lawyers on Wednesday to hear their request that she investigate alleged atrocities by NATO in the Kosovo conflict. The International Criminal Tribunal for former Yugoslavia made clear earlier this year that it has jurisdiction over all parties committing acts of aggression in Yugoslavia. "The prosecutor is receiving lawyers who are requesting that an investigation should be launched and indictments brought against the leaders of NATO," spokesman Paul Risley said.
