I have been told that when a Heart Crisis arose in the theatre the necessary machine to revive the patient was obstructed in its passage along the corridor by the food trolleys of the hospital.

I do not want to suggest that we are facing an Islamic Crisis in the Heart of Europe.

The real danger is that, 14 years after the Dayton process, we could, through lack of attention, find ourselves with a new Crisis in the Heart of the Balkans.
