The Russians published a video – Biden ordered the bombing of Belgrade
The video shows the current president of the USA, Joe Biden, saying that it was he who proposed the bombing of the capital of the then FR Yugoslavia.
“I suggested bombing of Belgrade. I suggested that American pilots go there and destroy all bridges on the Drina,” Biden said.
Zakharova states that Biden talks about it even before the bombing, explaining that Belgrade was bombed.
“Yugoslavia did not pose a direct or indirect threat to the United States or its citizens. They just needed it,” [Russian Foreign Ministry spokeswoman Maria] Zakharova concluded.

After the 78-day air war:
“I will continue with every fiber in my being to keep America involved with troops that can shoot and kill….”
“I believe it is absolutely essential for American troops to be on the ground with loaded rifles and drawn bayonets.”

The river Drina doesn’t go through Belgrade – unless it changed course since 1998. After 78 days of bombing (without any authorisation from UN) a UN resolution was passed that ended the aggression. The terms were the same as what had been on the table before the NATO attack. No-one was talking about “slow progress” or “stalled campaigns”. No boots on the ground – all done by “smart bombs” that also hit hospitals and TV stations not to mention the Chinese embassy . The US achieved their aims by ignoring the terms of the UN resolution that ended the war. They encouraged Kosovo Albanians to declare unilateral independence a few years later after they had expelled almost all non-Albanian residents with the connivance of NATO troops and had destroyed hundreds of ancient churches and monasteries while erecting mosques paid for by Gulf Arabs and the massive profits from drug smuggling and people trafficking. Albanians are now the largest group controlling drugs trade in UK. Thanks!

A superb synopsis. And of course you’re right that the Drina flows through Bosnia and not Serbia. A year later Biden got his wish when bridges were bombed on the Danube, blocking all traffic on the river.

I’m trying to locate exactly when this video was taken. Other places say it was 1999, not 1998. Which Senate hearing?

As you can see, the video was found on an English-language Serbian website and was attributed to the Telegram account of Maria Zakharova. An inspection of the video confirms the second fact. I attempted to find it on YouTube without success, but have to confess that finding key words to locate it is difficult. As was pointed out by a reader here, the Drina River runs through Bosnia and not Serbia/Kosovo, so Biden may have been referring to NATO’s bombing of the Bosnian Serb Republic in 1994 and 1995, with him recalling that he’d advocated expanding the bombing to the Federal Republic of Yugoslavia/Serbia capital of Belgrade.

It is on YouTube, here, but I can’t remember how I found it. I probably keyed in the words “Biden NATO bombing 1999.” That doesn’t really answer the question though. They probably got it from the same place you did. It’s definitely not a deepfake! But I’d still like to pin down exactly what hearing this is from. Maybe an expert on Biden’s hair plugs can tell us.

Thanks for the link. You’ll note that the Italian script says Danube and not Drina River. The latter would suggest 1994-1995 and not 1999. The way Biden spoke indicates that the Republicans were in control of the Senate at the time. They controlled the Senate in 1995 and 1999 but not in 1994.
