But since the U.S. Congress is likely to oppose extending the American commitment in Bosnia, a formal decision on the extension will not be taken until March 1. The current mandate for NATO's Stabilization Force (SFOR) expires in June. U.S. Secretary of State Madeleine Albright told the European allies at the Brussels meeting that they must contribute more toward policing Bosnia if Congress is going to support a continued American military role. {XINHUA NEWS AGENCY} L.R.F. {address information removed due to harassment and abuse by internet thugs and their frontmen.} --- from list marxism-general-AT-lists.village.virginia.edu ---
