The past two years have seen seismic shifts in the Balkans. Dramatic questions remain on how best to move the Balkans toward self-sustaining stability --and away from permanent occupation by NATO troops.

The International Crisis Group (ICG) has just published a region-wide report on the choices that leaders in the Balkans, Europe, and the U.S. must face, "After Milosevic: A Practical Guide to Lasting Peace in the Balkans." At this briefing ICG President Gareth Evans addressed such issues as:

• The future status of Kosovo and Montenegro vis á vis Serbia, Yugoslavia, the region, and the international community. What should it be; what is the process of getting there?
  
  
• What is an appropriate political and financial relationship with Serbia for the international community?
  
  
• Can the Dayton Accords move Bosnia to a more viable governance?

Speaker

• Gareth Evans, President, International Crisis Group (ICG)

• Richard Solomon, President, United States Institute of Peace

The presentation was followed by questions from the floor and the Internet audience.
