We've been in favour of lifting of the sanctions, and are in favour - and this will be our position on Monday in the General Affairs Council. I think we need immediately the lifting of all sanctions and the beginning of a programme of reconstruction in Yugoslavia. I said earlier I think the international community must focus on what the priority is, and the priority is building democracy, stabilising democracy. I think what we have seen - and this, I think, is a message to the international community - is that the Serbian people, the people of Yugoslavia themselves, have been able to open a new road. Let them continue to do so, without paternalism from outside." 4.52 BELGRADE, SERBIA, YUGOSLAVIA (OCTOBER 6, 2000) (REUTERS - ACCESS ALL) 16.
