WHAT HE SAID AND WHAT HE WROTE
The question arose whether the final solution of the ethnic
cleansing policy should be awaited before it was declared as
genocide. That question was being put to States by the draft
resolution. The continuation of that policy presumed the inability
and unwillingness of the international community to enforce
compliance, for thanks to the Special Rapporteur's reports, it could
no longer claim innocence. Time was short. The coming winter
would further inflict on the Muslim population conditions of life
calculated to bring about its physical destruction in whole or in
part by the aggressor, as provided in article II (c) of the Genocide
Convention.
The disaster that had reached apocalyptic proportions in Bosnia
and Herzegovina was a crucial test for the present generation. It
must not let history repeat itself. Inside the former Yugoslavia the
question was whether the Muslim population would survive.
Outside the country, however, the question was whether the world
in the aftermath of that tragedy would be worth living in.
