HL Deb 15 March 1999 vol 598 c60WA
Lord Moynihan

asked Her Majesty's Government:

Whether there are at present 12, 000 Yugoslav army troops and up to 14, 000 Serbian special police in Kosovo contrary to me agreements reached in October 1998. [HL1401]

Baroness Symons of Vernham Dean

Both sides in the Kosovo conflict are currently in breach of their obligations to the international community, as defined in UN Security Council resolutions and elsewhere. This includes FRY and Serbian security force levels being in excess of the numbers agreed in October 1998. The international community has repeatedly made clear to both sides mat any who, by recourse to violence, contravene the commitments they have made to the international community will have to answer for their actions.
