Milosevic’s Son Barred From Entering China
BEIJING — China refused to let Slobodan Milosevic’s son into the country Monday--the latest sign that Beijing, a onetime Milosevic supporter, has turned away from the ousted Yugoslav leader.
Marko Milosevic, traveling on a diplomatic passport, arrived at Beijing’s Capital Airport from Russia. Officials there stopped him and quickly put him back on the Aeroflot flight to Moscow, Russian reporters said.
Aeroflot could not be reached for comment, but China’s Foreign Ministry confirmed that the younger Milosevic was not in the country.
The Aeroflot plane later arrived back at Moscow’s international airport, but Milosevic did not appear in the arrivals area. The Russian Foreign Ministry and the Yugoslav Embassy in Moscow had no word on his whereabouts.
