Former Gen. Wesley Clark will be a prosecution witness at the Milosevic War Crimes Trial Monday and Tuesday.

The Bush Administration is demanding that it be allowed to review videotapes of his testimony before they are released to the public.

Closed sessions are routinely held at the United Nations tribunal that deals with Balkan war crimes, but usually to protect witnesses's safety. The conditions of General Clark's appearance are new.

The court agreed to give the United States government 48 hours to review the testimony and to ask judges to suppress any it regards as sensitive. Two government lawyers will accompany the general.

Milosevic is acting as his own lawyer and will cross-examine Clark:

Prosecutors want to know how much Mr. Milosevic knew — or could have known — about crimes committed by members of the Bosnian Serb military who were on Belgrade's payroll and by Serbian police officers and other forces directly under his command.

General Clark faces direct cross-examination by Mr. Milosevic, who conducts his own defense and usually demands as much time to question a witness as the prosecution. Frequently, he is given more time.
