_________________________________________________________________

Serbia and Montenegro have asserted the formation of a joint
independent state,but this entity has not been formally recognized as
a state by the US; the US view is that the Socialist Federal Republic
of Yugoslavia (SFRY) has dissolved and that none of the successor
republics represents its continuation.
