The United Nations said on January 5, 2001 that “evidence of radioactivity had been found in eight of the 11 areas tested in Kosovo.”
Former US diplomat Richard Holbrooke called the road between Kiev and Klina in Kosovo and Metohija “the most dangerous road in the world.”
That was in the 1990s, when fierce battles were fought in that area between Serbian and Albanian terrorist forces.
In 1999, NATO bombarded Serbia for days, including with uranium missiles.
When targeting Serbian defensive positions, NATO also used depleted uranium ammunition.
The UN hid the report on the consequences of the NATO aggression
The UN withheld a report from the public saying that NATO dumped around 10 tons of depleted uranium on Kosovo and Metohija during the bombing.
The report was compiled by the head of the UN Space Program Mission, Bakari Kante.
The report explains that NATO forces bombed at the time of planting, and depleted uranium affected air, land and water quality, leading to consequences in the food chain.
Therefore, future generations are exposed to an increase in the number of cancer and leukemia patients, spontaneous abortions, and newborn deformities.
A part of the report of the head of the UN commission, Bakarije Kante, from 1999 on the terrible consequences of the bombing of Serbia, was never officially published.
Unremembered war crime: NATO tests weapons on civilians
However, parts of that report reached the public thanks to the independent American journalist Robert James Parsons.
– All the important targets in Serbia during the NATO bombing in 1999 were hit with different types of weapons. One of the highest officials of UNEP (the United Nations Environment Program whose experts investigated the consequences of the bombing) confirmed this to me. In fact, they were testing weapons on the civilian population. It is an unprecedented war crime, said Robert James Parsons, a journalist who published a secret UN report on the consequences of the NATO bombing of Yugoslavia FR.
An independent journalist, whose articles on the NATO aggression were published in various Swiss newspapers, as well as in the French Le Monde, says it was the first in a series of “humanitarian” interventions that caused appalling suffering, such as the one that destroyed Libya.
UN researchers accompanied by the UN
Parsons is amazed that the United States and NATO have decided to put a nation in the middle of Europe to sleep with depleted uranium bombs.
He claims that at that time a terrible media campaign was carried out to conceal the catastrophic consequences of the bombing and justify the attack on Yugoslavia.
– While the shelling continued, the UNEP team compiled a preliminary report on the humanitarian catastrophe that caused the depleted uranium bombing, but that report was never officially published. When I published it in the newspaper, I was also under a lot of pressure for that. At that time, there was still a vivid memory of the consequences that American soldiers suffered from the use of uranium munitions in the Gulf War. NATO did not want to allow talk of depleted uranium in Europe at any cost, Parsons explained.
According to Parsons, NATO tried to prevent the UN from sending a team of investigators to Serbia after the war. In the end, a compromise was reached: the UN team came to Serbia, but they did not go anywhere without the company of NATO soldiers.
Nonsense report
They were taken exclusively to places where uranium ammunition was not used or to places that they had previously cleaned.
– The report that was compiled after that doesn’t make sense. The western media did not address this problem at all. For whatever reason, they just listened to what NATO spokesman Jamie Shay said, Parsons said.
However, the officials and soldiers who were sent to Kosovo and Metohija after the bombing were aware of the danger of radiation caused by scattered uranium and how it existed.
Parsons cites the example of Dutch soldiers who were warned not to eat anything in Kosovo and Metohija outside of military bases where imported food was served.
Do not send pregnant women to Kosovo
Frederick Barton, UN Deputy High Commissioner for Refugees, asked the World Health Organization to do a study on the impact of uranium munitions. That study was never completed because the International Atomic Energy Agency used its right to stop it.
However, a Russian professor at the World Health Organization delivered an unfinished report to Barton.
After that, Barton demanded that pregnant women not be sent to Kosovo and Metohija, as well as that a rule be introduced that no one can be sent to that area if they do not want to.
Barton lost his job after that, although he was already considered Sadako Ogata’s successor at the head of the Commissariat.
