| | The unforeseen escalation of violence in late-March 1999 and the consequent massive population movements, especially into neighbouring Albania and the former Yugoslav Republic of Macedonia, required an immediate emergency response from the UN humanitarian agencies under the leadership of UNHCR. | | | As long as there had been hope of a political settlement in January-March 1999, it was imprudent to postulate a systematic campaign to ethnically cleanse Kosovo, and it seemed unlikely that such a sustained and intensive NATO military intervention against the Federal Republic of Yugoslavia would occur. | | | Nearly 45,000 others sought refuge in Albania (18,500), the former Yugoslav Republic of Macedonia (16,000), and Bosnia and Hercegovina (10,000), and over 100,000 had filed for asylum in other European countries. |

| | His ardent Turkish nationalism dated from his early days as a cadet in the military school at Monastir (in the present-day Former Yugoslav Republic of Macedonia) during a time of constant conflict between Ottoman troops and Macedonian guerrillas, who attacked the Turkish population in the region. | | | The president of the republic would be elected to a four-year term by the assembly, and he in turn would appoint the prime minister, who was expected to enjoy the confidence of the assembly (see table 3, Appendix A). | | | With this treaty, the Allies recognized the present-day territory of Turkey and denied Turkey's claim to the Mosul area in the east (in present-day Iraq) and Hatay, which included the Mediterranean port of Alexandretta (Iskenderun). |
