During US, NATO's war against Serbia, Russia refused to support
Serbian side, bound by Chernomyrdin-Gore contract, deputy chairman
of Russian Academy for Geopolitical Issues Araik Sargsyan sated.
As he told a news conference in Yerevan, the contract forbade Russia
from providing S-300 anti-missile systems, in exchange for a promise
of presidential post to then RF vice president Victor Chernomyrdin.
On March 24, 1999, US and NATO forces began attack on Serbia. The
bombing went for 78 days. During 78 days of air strikes approximately
2,500 people died, including 557 civilians, while some 12,500 were
wounded. The administration at that time estimated the material damage
at USD 100 billion. A massive campaign of ethnic cleansing was cited
as the reason for the intervention. The NATO bombing was conducted
bypassing the United Nations.
