STILL WITH ENGLISH V/O: (SOUNDBITE) (ENGLISH) PRESIDENT BILL CLINTON SAYING "There are serious obstacles to overcome at the current talks, it is increasingly clear that this effort can only succeed if it includes a NATO led peace implementation force - that gives both sides the confidence to lay down their arms. It's also clear that if there is a real peace American participation in the force can provide such confidence particular for Kosovo's Albanians. For them as for so many people around the world, America symbolises hope and resolve. Europeans would provide the great bulk of any NATO force - roughly 85% - our share would amount of a little less than four thousand personnel. Our final decision on troops which I will make in close consultation with congress will depend upon the parties reaching a strong peace agreement - it must provide for an immediate ceasefire. Rapid withdrawal of most Serbian security forces and demilitarisation of the insurgents. The parties must agree to the NATO force and demonstrate they are ready to implement the agreement." 2.16 UNDISCLOSED LOCATION, DRENICIA REGION, KOSOVO, YUGOSLAVIA (FEBRUARY 13, 1999) (REUTERS - ACCESS ALL) 12.
