Milosevic opens defence in The Hague
Former Yugoslav president Slobodan Milosevic has opened his defence at the UN War Crimes Tribunal.
He presented a written motion contesting the court’s legality and requesting the dismissal of his case.
Milosevic attests that the criminal tribunal for the former Yugoslavia is selective and political, and incapable of conducting a fair trial.
He has refused to appoint a lawyer and maintains he’ll conduct his own defence.
