BRITAIN last night threatened air strikes against Serbian forces in Bosnia, writes Andrew Marshall.

British officials at the Nato summit said Serbian troops were preventing the replacement of Canadian United Nations soldiers in Srebrenica and the opening of the airport at Tuzla. They called on Nato to threaten air strikes to achieve both objectives, and restate their intention to protect Sarajevo from Serbian bombardment and strangulation - using air power if necessary.
