Your support helps us to tell the story

From reproductive rights to climate change to Big Tech, The Independent is on the ground when the story is developing. Whether it's investigating the financials of Elon Musk's pro-Trump PAC or producing our latest documentary, 'The A Word', which shines a light on the American women fighting for reproductive rights, we know how important it is to parse out the facts from the messaging.

At such a critical moment in US history, we need reporters on the ground. Your donation allows us to keep sending journalists to speak to both sides of the story.

The Independent is trusted by Americans across the entire political spectrum. And unlike many other quality news outlets, we choose not to lock Americans out of our reporting and analysis with paywalls. We believe quality journalism should be available to everyone, paid for by those who can afford it.

Your support makes all the difference.

Sir: As long as Radovan Karadzic remains at liberty in Bosnia, Slobodan Milosevic is unlikely to lose any sleep over his new status as an indicted war criminal.

Everyone in Sarajevo, including the hundreds of UN bureaucrats there, knows Karadzic's daily whereabouts, but they consider it impolitic to arrest him. Milosevic, who should also have been indicted for war crimes in Bosnia, knows the Western leaders well enough by now that he can count on them to favour spinelessness and appeasement at every opportunity.

So long as Europe wants to do deals with him, Milosevic knows his position is secure.
