British Foreign Secretary Robin Cook (L) shows the way to Zoran Zizic (R), Yugoslav Prime Minister and senior official of the largest Montenegrin opposition Socialist People's Party (SNP) and the anti-independence "Together for Yugoslavia" bloc, before talks in Podgorica April 25, 2001. Cook's visit to the region follows the narrow victory of pro-independence President Milo Djukanovic in Montenegro, Serbia's last federal partner in the rump Yugoslavia. Diplomats fear that if Djukanovic forges ahead with plans to break away from Belgrade it could encourage further disintegration in Serbia, Macedonia and Bosnia.
