Synopsis
The general explains the American role in the crisis through Military Professional Resources Inc.'s (MPRI) proposals for reorganizing the Army of the Republic of Macedonia (ARM) and the Ministry of Defense which revealed the strategy of America of preparing Republic of Macedonia from the inside for a defeat in case of war.[3] Petrovski also describes his conversation with president Boris Trajkovski after he was asked to come back and rejoin the armed forces before the conflict started.[4]
On the question from the General:
- Why you have retired me when I did not fulfil the conditions for it?
The president answered:
- Gereral, when I was elected president I didn't know you generals. Richard Griffiths Major General of the United States, brought me a list of tasks to do included in which were which generals to retire, so I signed the list.[5]
