Special Correspondent Edward Barnes says that to the extent that a newly-released Dutch report about Bosnian Serb massacres directly implicates General Ratko Mladic in the killings, "it definitely complicates the peace process. The New York Times report on Sunday was the first time that we saw solid evidence that Mladic was there, when the killings were taking place. And Serbian President Slobodan Milosevic may have to work something out for him in the peace plan. Will he allow Mladic to be put on trial? That could make things in Dayton more difficult." The other great dilemna, says Barnes...

Left to fend for themselves and hampered by the temporary absence of their relentless military commander Ratko Mladic, who was in the hospital reportedly being treated for gallstones, it was not until late in the week that the Bosnian Serb forces finally appeared to stiffen their defenses along a wide arc surrounding Banja Luka.

For the next eight hours the Bosnian Serbs and Holbrooke's staff worked on the language of the agreement Milosevic had proposed. Part of the time Holbrooke and Milosevic were out of the room for private talks and a dinner of roast lamb and red wine...
However NATO sees its role, its bombs seemed not to be hurting Mladic enough to force him to back away from Sarajevo. The longer the attacks go on, the more the pressure will mount on the West to up the ante and compel the Serbs to move. But increasing the ferocity of the air war could threaten allied unity and shake the new cooperation between NATO and the U.N., and might also precipitate a split with Russia, which is a member of the Contact Group. In Moscow last week, a fit-looking President Boris Yeltsin demanded, "Why are only...
