So said General Wesley Allen Clark,former commander of NATO. From a C-SPAN discussion with Sadako Ogata,and Dana Priest www.cspan.org CSPAN provides programs as a public service and has nothing to do with the opinions of the poster.
The only friend who NEVER betrayed as and gave us helping hand whatever circumstances are - Greek people. Greek officer Marinos Ritsoudis refused to bomb as 1999. and was sentenced to jail because of that. Before first WW central powers offered Greece territorial gains if Greek violet allie agreement with Serbia. President of Greek government Venizelos answered: Greek is too small country to do such big malice. One of street in center of Belgrade is named by him. Greek people on island Corfu shared last peace of bread with Serbian army in exile during WWI. Ethernal thanks to great and brave Greek people.
God bless my Greek brothers. Through the darkest times of Serbian history we were able to rely on one group of people to help lead us to light. Those are the Greeks. I’m forever grateful for the Greek people, true heroes in the eyes of us Serbs. God bless you all 🇷🇸🇬🇷
i remeber support which greece give us during those times. I dont realy like to go on vacations on sea but few years ago when greece had financial problems i decided to go on vacation in greece and spend 3 months salary. It isnt much, but i felt realy good to help greece and say thank you for support in 90's in my name.
Same here. Even though Spain is closer to where I live and it takes me 4 hours to fly all the way to Greece, every year I go to Greece for a holiday, thats my thank you for all that they have done for us.
I am Greek and I say that , when USA bombed Serbia all Greeks were sad and protested against that .We wanted to do something more to help our brothers Serbians but we couldn't because the governments sometimes deside without people's permission.I have decided to visit Serbia in future to meet my brothers and talk with them. Serbians remember that, Greeks were are and will be always your BROTHERS .
Did anyone give "permission" to ethnic cleansing and murder of tens of thousands of Bosnian-Muslims? The fact that you and the Serbian nationalists hate people because of their religion (ethnically, they share the same haploid group as the Christian Serbs) is incredibly stupid. You support murdering people because of the religion they practice? You know, Greece's economy is in shambles and will never recover, except for the hotels that cater (rip off Americans) and the untaxed shipping cartels. Good luck. I hear you guys love goats.
Almir Krasniqi one more with your last name -Krasniqi albanian terrorist is arrested im fyr Macedonia day ago for terrorisam , is it your bro ? I guess it is
Northern Epirus. Actually south Epirus is Albanian. Serbs are just like Turks they migrated to the Balkans (a place where they weren't wanted). Serbia hasn't done anything for Greece FACT. Albanians have done a lot more for Greece, Greece is a nation that exist thanks to the Albanians in Greece cause the Greeks in Asia Minor and Cyprus and Macedonia wasn't able to do anything in 1821 it was the arvanites.
i'm a serb and i love the greeks, when we were forced to leave our home because of the bombing.... guess what country accepted us in: Greece... in America when i was getting baptized and we still didn't have a Serbian Orthodox Church... guess which one we went to... the Greek Orthodox Church. Beautiful country. beautiful people, can't wait to go there again (i was also born there)
GREECE and SERBIA are 2 countries united in history, Orthodoxy, culture, friendship and sadly they also shared 500 years of suffering from the Turkish Ottoman Empire. No other people truly understand each other like the Serbians and the Greeks!🇷🇸❤️🇬🇷
No you DON'T understand the Greeks. You CAN'T know them because you NEVER lived in Greece. You speak from security and distance, if they were your neighbours you have called them Romá and Araboarmenians. It is only convenient being 2000 miles away.
@@avruvimtu2204 dude we the Greeks were always there, if you didnt want us as neighbors, then you should have stayed in Mongolia were you came from, nobody invited you here
Sure thing kids, 😆 i can’t imagine what kind of pain you have crying for something you want so bad but you can’t touch it. Leave Kosovo alone, it belongs to Albanians we don’t want your stupid churches here so shoo the fck off clowns 🤡
@Alarcon Serbia is a cultural-religious extent-arm of Greek/Byzantine Empire. A cultural child, if you will. No one denies that Byzantium had Greek ethnic identity. But it's Orthodox faith makes Serbs a part of it. A younger brother of a sorts.
+Mehmet Bardici Tunga, Mehmet! Skenderbeg had children, we agree on that, do we? How come they all have Slavic names? Are there some loopholes in Albanian selfproclamed "history"? I'd say yes.
A friend in need is a friend indeed! I'm so proud to hear this! I hope God blesses both our countries and helps all our orthodox brothers and all the world 😢🤗🙏❤️🇬🇷
I never forget this from greece and i say this to my kids thank you my brothers im turist in greece 18 years im filing like my country serbia and brothers hellas big love
Oh yes!,! I remember this it was hilarious!!! And the people in the market throwing vegetables to them....And also the people in Thessaloniki port not getting out of their cars stopping and not allowing the tanks to go anywhere.... you remember?
They were just being clueless wheedlers to make you bigger wheedlers and allies, do you realize that? They were clueslessly wheedlers to Palestinians as well.
GREECE IS THE BEST CONTRY AND PEOPLE ! ! ! I BEEN IN GREECE IN ALEXANDROPOLIS AND GREEKS LOVE AS LIKE BROTHERS AND WE ALL LOVE YOU ! ! ! SERBIA GREECE FOREVER TOGETHER
it is so nice after a 21 years to see this kind of comments by our serbian brothers........i was there with the greekserbian friendship org and i still remember how serbian people treat us when we arrived in belgrad for help..........that was the best thing i have done in my life..........
Yeah, of course, because your "humanitarian measures" involve cowardly airstrikes that you want to additionally supply with literal occupation, so was said in Ramboullet and now humanitarian organisations are the bad guys for a "humanitarian" like yourself. Deepest respect to the brave Greeks, after all, what other small nation would go out of its way to help another, a dishonoured and outcast one when it was very specifically - forbidden.
I love Greece ❤️ That's why i always spend my holidays there , because they are our brothers! Beautiful country,friendly people and amazing ladies!!! USA one day u will have war on ur territory then we will see how u deal with it !!! Russia&Greece&Serbia ❤️ One day united orthodox countries ❤️
And this is something some people will never understand what means to be loyal and friend to one another, as we the Serbs have with Greeks. This will never change no matter what.
Please don’t chance that ever, your President is way too friendly these days with turkey 🦃 Also, your government "sold us" with the Macedonia issue, even tho we are 100% Historically right on this issue
I don’t disagree with with you at all. But the president of Serbia has been there for a while and the people of Serbia are not the same as the president of Serbia. When it comes to the issue about the name it makes no sense. Those guys recognized Kosovo and we yet again side with them over you?! It blows my mind really.
"A Greek non-governmental organization, they never supported the fact that we were going to take military actions against the Serbs".... So, Greek Navy is a governmental organization? Serbia was struggling to survive, fighting armies from different countries and we were supposed to support that? No way! All Greeks were protesting against that unfair war. A grand salute to our captain Marinos Ritsoudis who stood out as an example to many here in Greece. May his example inspire many more not only in Greece, but the whole world. For me, Serbians were the Spartans of the 90's.
Greek government loves everyone except the Greeks. At least they love the Serbs. All Greek parties have relations with respective Serbian ones. I only wish more people knew about how the Serbs are our actual allies, not America or Skopja.
i have been to serbia many times.love the people and the place.my favourite is novi-sant and i like rakia and chevap..hvala for your kind words zelena.lots of love from cyprus.take care and live long and prosper.yia sou.
The objective of the USA was to build a military base in our Balkans, which they did by obtaining the right for the US army to stay in Kosova for 99 years, now the only regions of the world without US bases are few (Russia, China, Iran). Also don't forget that albanians, bosnians and muslim palestinians sided with Hitler in WWII (Hitler and the great moufit of Jerusalem were friends and allied). And it's normal that orthodox countries and allies help each others.
@ john You want to say Serbs destroy Byzanthy? And if you look Serbian flag there is Byzanthine sign. Im think Western Roman Empire destroy Byzanthy, and stole all from there. Many of stolen Byzanthian sculptures are now in Rome. After Westerns cowboys, muslims did the rest.
Americans didnt target kosovo they targeted civilian buildings , hospitals , bridges, civil trains , TV stations and so on , they barely destroyed any tanks or armored vehicles and minimal military damage ..
I agree with everything you said.It's very funny to see Schipetari(Albanians) claiming to be of Ilirian origin.Ilirians historicaly "disappeared" by the time Serbs and Croats allegedly inhabited Balkan peninsula.It was in early 7-th century.While, so called Albanians, were brought in Balkans in the year 1043.That's the first time they were mentioned in history of Balkans.No historical connection and still they want it so bad.Johnny,thanks for being so patient in dealing with notorious liars.
Thanks to our greek brothers and sisters, Serbia will never forget your endless humanitarian help by sending tons and tons of food and medicine for our hospitals and our children! Ellada-Servia=Orthodoxia!! Wesley you thought it would be easy to bomb a proud and brave nation like Serbia? Boy....you failed your target!! Dont mess with Serbia...for more informations ask the Turks and Germans....
"We were bombing trucks on the road with no markings and no one knew who was in these trucks" so you saying you bombed people and didnt know if they were civilians or not ? hmmmm interesting
In July 2014, EU Special Investigative Task Force chief prosecutor Clint Williamson, announced that his team had procured enough evidence to support indictments against senior KLA members. The charges Williamson listed included unlawful killing, abduction, illegal detention, sexual violence, forced displacement of individuals from their homes and communities, and the desecration and destruction of religious sites. He went on to say that these acts of persecution effectively resulted in the ethnic cleansing of large portions of the Serb, Roma and non-Albanian population from Kosovo. “The evidence is compelling that these crimes were not the acts of rogue individuals acting on their own accord, but rather that they were conducted in an organized fashion and were sanctioned by certain individuals in the top levels of the KLA leadership.”
