[0:02] Peace in Yugoslavia. NATO officials say

[0:05] air strikes could end within days. But

[0:08] is everyone on board? A look at Kosovo's

[0:11] rebels, their willingness to lay down

[0:13] their weapons of war, and their aims of

[0:16] independence.

[0:17] And 10 years after the massacre in

[0:19] Tanman Square, a new movement in China.

[0:23] An exclusive interview with the

[0:25] spiritual leader of tens of millions of

[0:28] Chinese.

[0:34] From CNN in Washington, this is World

[0:37] View. I'm Judy Woodruff. Bernard Shaw is

[0:40] on assignment.

[0:42] For the 73rd day, NATO jets attacked

[0:45] targets in Yugoslavia and Serbian

[0:48] artillery pounded Albanian territory

[0:50] again. Reminders that the deal to end

[0:53] the conflict is still a deal in word

[0:56] only. The allies are waiting for

[0:58] Yugoslav President Sloban Mallovich's

[1:00] next move. We begin with CNN White House

[1:03] correspondent John King.

[1:06] >> The White House says the strikes on

[1:08] Yugoslavia could end as soon as Sunday

[1:10] and that the first NATO peacekeepers

[1:12] might enter Kosovo by early next week,

[1:14] but only if Yugoslav President Slobodon

[1:16] Mallich keeps his word and quickly

[1:18] withdraws his troops. Our experience in

[1:20] the Balkans teaches us that true peace

[1:23] can only come when progress in

[1:24] discussions is followed by progress on

[1:27] the ground. NATO generals will meet with

[1:30] Yugoslav military commanders Saturday to

[1:32] discuss a oneweek withdrawal timetable.

[1:34] If the Serb retreat begins on schedule,

[1:36] the strikes will stop and the Kosovo

[1:38] peacekeeping operation will begin.

[1:40] >> Peacekeepers can move in before there

[1:42] all of them are out. Yeah.

[1:44] >> Mr. Clinton spoke with Finnish President

[1:45] Marty Atasari to thank him for pushing

[1:48] Belgrade to accept the peace plan. And

[1:50] he sent Russian President Boris Yelin a

[1:52] note praising Moscow's role in the

[1:54] diplomatic breakthrough. But there's

[1:55] still no agreement with Russia on a

[1:57] peacekeeping command structure and NATO

[1:59] won't wait for a deal before sending

[2:01] troops into Kosovo.

[2:02] >> On one hand, Russian participation

[2:04] remains an open question. On the other

[2:06] hand, uh K4 uh stands ready to move in

[2:09] with a matter of days. Caution remained

[2:11] the White House watch word, but there

[2:12] was also a sense of vindication.

[2:14] >> This is a goal that has been worth

[2:16] fighting for over the last weeks.

[2:17] >> Mr. Clinton looked ahead to rebuilding

[2:19] Kosovo.

[2:20] >> There is an enormous opportunity to be

[2:22] seized here, a chance to shift our focus

[2:25] from defeating something evil to

[2:27] building something good.

[2:29] >> But the allies are making clear they

[2:30] will rebuild Kosovo only and try to

[2:32] isolate Mr. Mallosich as he tries to

[2:35] rebuild a nation rocked by 10 weeks of

[2:37] NATO strikes. When the 800,000 Kosovo

[2:40] refugees might begin heading home is an

[2:41] open question. It's also unclear just

[2:44] how long the peacekeepers will remain in

[2:46] Kosovo. Some US officials privately

[2:48] predict the NATO deployment will be

[2:50] necessary as long as Mr. Mallosvich

[2:52] remains in power. And no one here sees

[2:54] him losing his grip on Serbia anytime

[2:57] soon. John King, CNN, the White House.

[3:01] >> Now to Russia where there is a different

[3:03] point of view. deep concern that the

[3:05] Kosovo peace plan will put Russian

[3:07] peacekeeping troops under the command of

[3:09] an old foe, NATO. That part of the story

[3:12] from our Moscow bureau chief Jill Dohy.

[3:16] Saturday, Russia will send its military

[3:19] representatives to a meeting on the

[3:20] Yugoslav Macedonian border. There,

[3:23] military specialists from NATO and

[3:26] Yugoslavia will begin hammering out

[3:28] details of a Serbian troop withdrawal

[3:30] from Kosovo and the return of refugees.

[3:34] The Russians will be there as mediators.

[3:36] A spokesman said that may sound vague,

[3:39] but so far so is the role Russian

[3:41] peacekeepers will play in Kosovo.

[3:45] >> There will be a lot of proposals to

[3:47] solve this very complicated problem. The

[3:49] Russian military is working around the

[3:51] clock to hammer out options acceptable

[3:53] both for Russia, the UN Security

[3:55] Council, and Yugoslavia.

[3:58] Friday, Russia's special envoy Victor

[4:00] Chermired visiting a village near Moscow

[4:03] said Russia could contribute up to

[4:05] 10,000 peacekeepers to the Kosovo

[4:07] operation.

[4:10] >> We're talking about a force of 5 to

[4:12] 10,000 servicemen. But we should

[4:14] understand that all this will be

[4:16] determined by the UN Security Council.

[4:19] It too will determine the time limits

[4:21] for the international presence. I think

[4:24] it'll last for about a year and the cost

[4:26] will be considerable.

[4:28] >> But some in the Russian military are

[4:30] skeptical of the mission and still

[4:32] suspicious of NATO.

[4:35] General Leaned Ibashoff of the Defense

[4:37] Ministry was quoted as saying he still

[4:40] doesn't rule out the possibility that

[4:42] NATO will attack Yugoslav forces as they

[4:45] withdraw from Kosovo. President Boris

[4:48] Yeltson, however, says he's pleased with

[4:50] the work of his envoy, Victor Chairan.

[4:52] But now there's no reason for any more

[4:55] NATO attacks on Yugoslavia.

[4:57] It's another story in the Russian

[4:59] parliament which summoned government

[5:01] officials to a closed door hearing.

[5:03] >> Maybe 1% maybe 1% is supporting Mr. Cham

[5:06] and we'll see now. But I am absolutely

[5:09] sure I am I have been talking with the

[5:11] people from his own fraction. They are

[5:13] ashamed of him.

[5:15] >> Chair Miran defending himself says there

[5:18] were only two paths Russia could have

[5:20] taken. stopping the war by political

[5:22] means or fighting, putting on a trench

[5:25] coat and going forward. Russia was the

[5:27] only one trying for a political

[5:29] settlement, he said, and if we achieve

[5:31] an end to the bombing, that will be

[5:34] success. Jill Dardi, CNN, Moscow.

[5:38] The Kosovo Liberation Army is the only

[5:41] armed force to battle Yugoslav forces on

[5:43] the ground in Kosovo. Does the peace

[5:46] deal mean an end to its war and its goal

[5:49] of independence? CNN's David Ensor

[5:51] reports.

[5:54] >> US and NATO officials say once the Serb

[5:57] forces are out of Kosovo, the Kosovo

[5:59] Liberation Army must demilitarize. That

[6:02] means give up any heavy weapons, take

[6:04] off uniforms. It does not mean disarm

[6:07] entirely.

[6:08] >> In America, for example, most of the

[6:10] armament that the KLA has is used to

[6:13] hunt down raccoons and deers. So, how

[6:16] can you ask to to give a weapon that is

[6:18] usually held is held home just for

[6:22] hunting?

[6:22] >> Kosvars will still have some arms. And

[6:25] NATO's job of keeping peace in Kosovo

[6:27] will also be made more difficult by the

[6:29] anger of many Kosvars. I think people

[6:32] don't realize how radicalizing

[6:34] this expulsion, the rep rapidity with

[6:37] which it happened and the brutality with

[6:39] it which it happened radicalized the

[6:42] whole population and especially the

[6:44] younger generation.

[6:45] >> And because of ours and especially the

[6:47] KLA are not getting under the new peace

[6:50] plan what they were fighting for.

[6:52] >> We believe that we uh deserve

[6:54] independence. uh with the suffering that

[6:56] our people has gone through, we do not

[6:59] see how um how we can live with the

[7:02] Serbs in uh in the same state.

[7:04] >> What worries many Kosvars most about the

[7:07] new peace plan is that it assigns to the

[7:09] UN Security Council the job of deciding

[7:11] on Kosovo's interim government. They

[7:13] worry about the Russians using their

[7:15] veto to prevent strong Kosovo

[7:18] self-ruule. Lawyer Paul Williams

[7:20] represents them in Washington. The

[7:22] Russians and the Chinese will use their

[7:24] veto to ensure that there is an alphabet

[7:27] soup of organizations running Kosovo.

[7:30] This alphabet soup will be very

[7:32] ineffectual and will provide an

[7:34] opportunity for the Serbian regime to

[7:36] continue in a sense their unsettling of

[7:39] the population of Kosova. When the

[7:41] refugees return to Kosovo, NATO troops

[7:43] will find themselves keeping the peace

[7:45] and protecting the Serb minority in an

[7:48] angry province scarred by murder, rape,

[7:50] and expulsion. It will not be easy.

[7:54] David Ensor, CNN, Washington.

[7:56] >> The return of refugees to Kosovo is a

[7:59] key condition of the peace agreement,

[8:01] but as CNN's Jeff Fluck reports, the

[8:03] journey home will be difficult.

[8:07] Hallelujah.

[8:08] >> Though peace is far from sure, plans to

[8:11] deal with the 850,000 Kosvar refugees

[8:14] eager to retrace their steps home are

[8:17] already being made. Are you worried

[8:19] about them beginning to spill over the

[8:21] border before you are ready?

[8:24] >> Well, that's obviously one of one of the

[8:26] scenario, but I mean there's no way

[8:27] we're going to be able to prevent them

[8:29] to go back if they want to go back.

[8:30] According to their plan, the UNHCR will

[8:33] immediately deploy to these seven cities

[8:36] inside Kosovo. Priority one, dealing

[8:38] with the refugees hold up there. Now,

[8:41] >> all those people who have left their

[8:42] homes, who have been in hiding for for

[8:44] days, for weeks, uh for months, I mean,

[8:47] those people are in a very, very

[8:48] precarious position.

[8:50] >> Then they'll try to get ready for the

[8:51] possible onslaught from refugees waiting

[8:54] nearby. 440,000 in Albania, almost

[8:57] 250,000 in Macedonia, another 90,000

[9:01] elsewhere in the Balkans. It will be a

[9:03] longer trip for the more than 75,000

[9:06] already scattered worldwide. Most are in

[9:09] Germany, Turkey, and Norway. In Kosovo,

[9:12] there are houses to rebuild, landmines

[9:14] to clear, infrastructure to repair. But

[9:17] most of the refugees here in the camps

[9:19] don't care much about that. Their one

[9:21] priority for returning is protection

[9:24] from the Serb forces.

[9:29] >> We agree that with a NATO presence, we

[9:31] will be safe. He says without NATO, I

[9:34] will absolutely not go. The prime

[9:36] minister of the country with the most

[9:38] refugees thinks the process will be

[9:40] slow.

[9:43] As long as Nilosovich is there in power

[9:45] playing games, their return their safe

[9:48] return to their homes and their land

[9:50] will be a very difficult process.

[9:52] >> Difficult surely. But how long will it

[9:54] take? The UNHCR says if peace holds now,

[9:58] it could spare the Kosvar refugees a

[10:00] miserable winter in the camps.

[10:02] >> You possibly can beat the winter now.

[10:05] >> Absolutely. We've got time on our side

[10:07] and that's very good.

[10:08] >> Time on their side at least for now.

[10:11] I'm Jeff Lock, CNN in Toronto, Albania.

[10:16] >> As things stand, Sloban Mallovich will

[10:18] remain Yugoslav president under the

[10:20] Kosovo peace plan, a head of state and

[10:23] an indicted war criminal. CNN's Andrea

[10:25] Cppel has more on his prospects after

[10:28] the war.

[10:30] Indicted war criminal Yugoslav President

[10:32] Slobodon Mallosvich may have lost the

[10:34] war, but he's still in power. Uh we

[10:38] believe that he remains in firm control.

[10:40] >> But NATO isn't counting on Malloich to

[10:42] be a guarantor of peace in Kosovo the

[10:45] way he was in 1995 at the Dayton Accords

[10:48] once all Serb forces have been withdrawn

[10:51] from Kosovo and an international

[10:53] peacekeeping force goes in.

[10:55] Administration officials say the

[10:56] Yugoslav president's relevance will be

[10:59] significantly diminished.

[11:00] >> By any rational calculation, Malloich

[11:04] comes out of this uh much much weaker.

[11:06] The message NATO wants to send Mallich,

[11:09] your days are numbered. And to the

[11:11] people of Serbia,

[11:13] >> you have a dictator in charge, an

[11:15] indicted war criminal as your leader,

[11:18] and you cannot expect properly to be

[11:21] part of the reconstruction of the

[11:23] Balkans. While that remains so,

[11:26] >> NATO's plans to rebuild the Balkans

[11:29] explicitly exclude a Serbia with

[11:32] Malloich in charge. But those who've

[11:34] studied Malloich suggest NATO's strategy

[11:37] of isolating him could ultimately play

[11:40] to his strength.

[11:41] >> I think that down the road, 2, three,

[11:43] four years, you're going to see uh

[11:46] people in Serbia again rising up against

[11:48] Malashshovich and he using some other um

[11:52] stoked up violence to keep himself in

[11:55] power. And while Malosvich may be

[11:58] calculating he can stay in power by

[12:01] playing to the fears and anger of the

[12:03] Serb people, the US and its NATO allies

[12:06] believe that could be a miscalculation.

[12:09] They say this time Mallosvich is an

[12:11] indicted war criminal whose personal

[12:13] assets are frozen, his country in ruins.

[12:18] Andrea Cppel, CNN at the State

[12:20] Department.

[12:22] This is the 10th anniversary of

[12:24] Beijing's Tianman Square massacre. In

[12:27] 1989, Chinese troops attacked

[12:29] pro-democracy demonstrators in the

[12:32] city's main square, ending 7 weeks of

[12:35] studentled protests. The number of

[12:37] people killed is still unknown. On

[12:40] Friday, Chinese leaders ordered extra

[12:42] security to prevent any uprisings or

[12:45] public mourning on the anniversary, but

[12:47] there were small acts of defiance.

[12:50] Police arrested at least two protesters.

[12:54] Just weeks ago, more than 10,000 Chinese

[12:57] staged the largest protest in Beijing

[12:59] since the democracy movement, catching

[13:02] the government offguard. CNN's Garrick

[13:04] Utley spoke to the group's leader, now

[13:06] living in the United States after coming

[13:08] under pressure from Chinese authorities.

[13:12] >> They protested quietly in Beijing in

[13:14] April, demanding that their rights be

[13:16] recognized. And in their silence, they

[13:19] shook China's leaders, these 10,000

[13:22] followers of Fallon Gong. The Chinese

[13:24] government acknowledges that there are

[13:26] 60 to 70 million of them in the country.

[13:29] But their leader was not there. Lihong

[13:31] Zhu is living in New York City where he

[13:34] practices what he has been preaching

[13:35] since the early 1990s, a mindbody

[13:38] spiritual exercise program with roots in

[13:40] Buddhism. There are some who say that

[13:43] you are one of the most powerful and

[13:45] influential figures in China today. Even

[13:48] though you're living here in New York

[13:49] City,

[13:53] >> I don't think of myself as a powerful

[13:55] person. I only want to tell people to do

[13:57] good things and be good human beings. In

[14:00] China, the Fallon Gong has more

[14:02] followers than the Communist Party has

[14:05] members. It's growing popularity worries

[14:07] China's leaders. Are you a threat to the

[14:11] communist rulers there?

[14:15] >> I don't think I am a threat. What I'm

[14:18] doing is beneficial to society. It is

[14:20] they who regard us as a threat.

[14:22] >> Are any of your practitioners being put

[14:24] under pressure by the government in

[14:26] China?

[14:28] >> I think at present they are faced with

[14:30] great pressure. Several departments of

[14:32] the government have issued official

[14:34] documents ordering people in the army

[14:36] and party members to stop practicing

[14:38] fall & gong. In some regions, the armed

[14:40] police try to drive away practitioners

[14:42] who come to practice.

[14:44] >> What do you tell them your practitioners

[14:45] to do? What should they do?

[14:49] I have always told them to restrain

[14:51] themselves and endure. Frankly speaking,

[14:54] I have no interest in getting involved

[14:56] in politics. I would not like to see my

[14:59] students shed blood and I would not like

[15:01] to see them run into any trouble.

[15:02] >> Do you think there will be trouble?

[15:06] >> It's difficult to say. In China, as in

[15:09] any society, there is a constant

[15:11] struggle for the heart and mind and soul

[15:13] of the people. Liongu and his teachings

[15:16] have won the belief of tens of millions

[15:18] of Chinese. The next move, if there is

[15:21] one, is up to the Chinese government.

[18:10] >> Next week, Pope John Paul II is going

[18:12] home to Poland. CNN's Jim Bitterman

[18:15] reports on what is expected to be a

[18:17] nostalgic journey.

[18:23] On the eve of one of the most rigorous

[18:25] trips of his pontificate, Pope John Paul

[18:27] II was leading his flock in a three-hour

[18:30] ceremony through the streets of Rome. We

[18:33] don't worry, some faithful said God will

[18:35] keep him strong. The Pope will need

[18:38] strength on a trip that will take him to

[18:40] 20 cities in 12 days. an emotional,

[18:43] perhaps a final visit to his homeland.

[18:46] Demanding Polish trip is more than just

[18:48] a sentimental journey. The Pope,

[18:49] according to church officials, believes

[18:51] in an opportunity to revitalize

[18:53] Catholicism in a country where since the

[18:55] fall of communism, it has been of

[18:56] declining importance.

[18:59] In the bad old days of communistic rule,

[19:01] the Polish church was a small hope for

[19:03] freedom. A papal visit, the occasion to

[19:06] rally the opposition. But when freedom

[19:08] came to Poland, the role of the church

[19:11] changed.

[19:12] >> It's totally different from I imagined

[19:15] the pope hoped it would be after the

[19:17] fall of you know the power and the

[19:19] influence of the church in Poland has

[19:21] gone down a lot and and so the pope is

[19:24] always the pope of course but uh it's

[19:26] not what it used to be

[19:32] >> indeed. While he can never be less than

[19:34] a hero in his homeland for the way he

[19:36] challenged communism, in recent trips

[19:38] home, the Pope's warnings to his

[19:39] compatriots about the new dangers of

[19:41] materialism and capitalism have not

[19:43] always been so wellreceived. Nor have

[19:45] the Pope's concerns about the way the

[19:47] church is increasingly disappearing from

[19:49] Polish life. the pressures on to make

[19:53] Poland more of a secular country like

[19:55] other Western European countries while

[19:58] he would keep them a good old Polish

[20:02] Catholic country.

[20:04] >> Still, Vatican officials say the pope

[20:06] will point to problems as he sees them.

[20:08] >> During the communist period, he stressed

[20:12] freedom

[20:13] and the rights of the individual.

[20:16] when he went back after communism and

[20:18] I'm sure this will be repeated this time

[20:20] he stresses the responsibilities of the

[20:23] individual.

[20:27] >> But whether his message goes down well

[20:29] or not on this his eighth trip back home

[20:31] as pope, few of his countrymen can see

[20:33] him returning now without remembering

[20:35] his first papal trip almost exactly 20

[20:38] years ago when John Paul brought a

[20:40] message that triggered events that all

[20:42] the forces of communism could not stop.

[20:46] Jim Berman, CNN Row.

[20:52] >> Hey,

[20:54] what are you doing up here?

[20:56] >> So, you've been using 1010 321.

[20:58] >> What? Oh, I keep forgetting about that.

[21:00] >> Well, you should try to remember. You

[21:02] get 50% off calls over 10 minutes. Every

[21:05] day, anytime.

[21:06] >> H, I like that. But there's got to be a

[21:08] monthly fee, right?

[21:09] >> Not with 1010 321. Dial it and you'll

[21:12] see the savings on your phone bill. All

[21:14] right, I'll give it a try. Cool.

[21:17] >> HEY, GET AWAY FROM MY CAR.

[21:19] >> JUST dial 10321.

[21:54] Peter Lynch from Fidelity.

[21:56] >> Don Rickles fishing. Are you thinking

[21:58] about retiring?

[21:58] >> What? I touch a rod and reel and you're

[22:00] having a farewell banquet.

[22:01] >> It's never too early to plan.

[22:03] >> You know, I saved a lot, but I don't

[22:04] want to outlive You need to plan your

[22:06] retirement income even before you've

[22:08] retired. Tell that guy, too. His bait

[22:10] looks fresher than him.

[22:11] >> If you're about to retire or already

[22:12] have, call Fidelity for your free

[22:14] retirement income planning guide.

[22:16] >> When I do retire, forget fishing.

[22:18] Vulcanized rubber makes me itch.

[22:25] >> The politicians in Washington are

[22:27] raiding the Social Security trust fund

[22:32] and Steve Forbes wants to stop them.

[22:39] That way we can preserve social security

[22:42] for this generation and for generations

[22:45] to come. Vote Steve Force for president.

[23:08] All over the world, they take people

[23:10] where they need to go.

[23:14] But wherever the road ends, there's a

[23:16] good chance it started with Caterpillar

[23:18] equipment.

[23:22] >> We will fight for human rights. They're

[23:25] >> hungry for love. This is not just

[23:27] another emergency.

[23:34] Money is important uh individually and

[23:37] as a nation, but it's not as important

[23:41] as integrity and high moral standards.

[23:45] >> I think money does matter, but it

[23:46] doesn't it shouldn't rule your life.

[23:48] It's just one component. I think

[23:49] spirituality, I think aesthetics, I

[23:51] think family. I would put these things

[23:53] before money.

[23:54] >> Money is not going to make you happy. Um

[23:57] it helps, but it gives you a lot of

[23:59] problems as well. I noticed once I made

[24:00] it to the NFL, it's gave me a lot of

[24:02] problems with people coming out the

[24:04] woodworks and asking for a lot of money

[24:06] and things like that and it just causes

[24:07] so much problems. Well, I think money is

[24:09] important if you don't have it. And

[24:11] that's probably true. Anything that's

[24:13] important is because you don't have it.

[24:15] If you've got good health, then health

[24:19] is not important. If you've got money,

[24:21] money is not important.

[24:22] >> No one on their deathbed wish they'd

[24:24] spend more time at the office or

[24:26] watching television.

[24:28] And they really don't talk that much

[24:30] about money. They talk about

[24:32] relationships or the lack of them.

[24:35] And uh people in their heart of hearts,

[24:39] they know what truly is important.

[26:13] radio business. Tonight, 6:30 Eastern on

[26:26] cables, and ports and modems. It's the

[27:15] call to the Ring Team. Helping

[27:20] children beyond blaming on Larry King

[27:23] live tonight.

[27:26] >> Finally, a look at how the people of

[27:28] Bgrade are reacting to the Kosovo peace

[27:30] plan. CNN's Walter Rogers is there.

[27:34] >> Two weeks ago, this young Bgrade couple

[27:36] had no electricity, no water. They were

[27:39] struggling with a 9-month-old baby amid

[27:41] NATO bombing. But now with the end of

[27:43] the war in sight,

[27:45] >> I'm very happy today because I think uh

[27:47] this horrible war is over now. And um I

[27:52] think that my son will have future.

[27:57] >> Still they are stockpiling water and

[27:59] food and on the balcony just in case.

[28:02] >> This was for cooking.

[28:05] >> Probe a little deeper below the surface,

[28:07] however, and there's still great

[28:08] bitterness. They are not happy with

[28:10] President Mallosvich, but NATO is a

[28:12] worse villain to them. They believe they

[28:15] have lost Kosovo, a kind of national

[28:17] religious patrimony perhaps forever. An

[28:20] alien military force, 50,000 soldiers,

[28:23] is about to occupy that part of their

[28:25] country.

[28:28] >> It's probably the greatest tragedy in

[28:30] Europe for the last 50 years. and that

[28:33] we gave Kosovo to Albanians, to NATO, to

[28:38] whatever. I just feel very bitter about

[28:40] that.

[28:42] >> Maria has started smoking again. 73

[28:45] nights of air raid sirens, sonic booms,

[28:48] and bombs. Serbs have lost more than

[28:50] Kosovo. More has been destroyed than

[28:52] bridges and armies.

[28:54] >> I don't believe in

[28:57] your president. I don't believe in my

[28:59] president. I don't believe in people

[29:02] anymore. I believe only in my husband,

[29:05] in my son, and in my family.

[29:08] >> Okay,

[29:10] some friends.

[29:12] >> A photo album attests to better times.

[29:15] Ivonne and Maria both lost their jobs.

[29:17] Like most young Yugoslavs, they subsist

[29:19] on snapshots and memories.

[29:22] >> Our honeymoon.

[29:25] >> One picture they won't have this year,

[29:27] summer vacation. There is no money.

[29:29] After more than eight years of war in

[29:31] the Balkans, they call themselves the

[29:33] lost generation.

[29:35] >> My personal plans and our family plans

[29:37] are to move somewhere

[29:40] maybe only for the winter or or maybe

[29:43] forever.

[29:44] >> Maria and Ivonne are 27 and 31. They say

[29:48] they no longer have a country. Walter

[29:50] Rogers, CNN Belgrade.
