According to Colonel Vlatko Vukovic, testifying as Slobodan Milosevic's defense witness, the crimes committed in 1999 in his area of responsibility in Kosovo, as alleged in the indictment, either "did not happen" or did not happen in the way the prosecution alleges, and were thus "no crimes at all"
According to Colonel Vukovic, none of that ever happened or if it did, it was in a way substantially different from the description in the indictment or in the testimony of Kosovo Albanians heard during the prosecution case.
Vukovic claims that his unit "merely passed through Bela Crkva" in the early morning, but did not stay there, this despite their orders to "search it".

Vukovic - who led a motorised battalion in western Kosovo during the conflict there - is by no means the first of Milosevic’s defence witnesses to speak of cooperation between the KLA and the international community.
Vukovic went on to claim that teams of observers deployed by the international community to monitor the situation within Kosovo were also complicit in the “aggression” against Yugoslavia.
Vukovic also spent much of his time in the witness stand commenting on a series of alleged atrocities listed in the indictment against Milosevic which are said to have taken place in the area where he himself was stationed in 1999.

 Serbian Rulers - Tvrtko I (1353-1377)
Specifically, by further example, this is evidenced by the later attempt of the powerful splinter Bosnian nobleman, Stefan Vukcic Kosaca, to take in 1449 the arbitrary, but appealing title "Herceg (Duke) of Saint Sava", and whence that whole area (formerly Hum) was to be known as Hercegovina.
But Tvrtko's main contribution to a potential Serbian revival was the dutiful participation of his troops, under celebrated commander Vlatko Vukovic, at the side of his ally prince Lazar, at the Battle of Kosovo.
Tvrtko's correspondence with Western capitals shortly after the battle - based on his surviving troops' reports and claiming victory - are among the earliest surviving documents of the event.

Indeed, one Serb participant (Vlatko Vukovic') represented the battle at Kosovo as a Serbian victory, and that is reflected in some contemporary Italian reports.
The Ottoman Empire conquered Serbia (and the rest of the Balkans) not by means a single brilliant victory, but by a steady strategy of divide-and-conquer.
