In 1996 his travelogue Eine winterliche Reise zu den Flüssen Donau, Save, Morawa und Drina oder Gerechtigkeit für Serbien (A Journey to the Rivers: Justice for Serbia) created considerable controversy, as Handke portrayed Serbia among the victims of the Balkan War. In the same essay, Handke also frontally attacked Western media for misrepresenting the causes and consequences of the war. This controversy still rages. Former Yugoslavian president Slobodan Milošević asked that Handke be summoned as witness for the defense before the International Criminal Tribunal for the former Yugoslavia, but the writer declined. He did, however, visit the tribunal as a spectator, and later published his observations in Die Tablas von Daimiel, (The Tablas of Daimiel).

In fact, in a letter to the French Nouvel Observateur he offered a translation of his speech: "The world, the so-called world, knows everything about Yugoslavia, Serbia. The world, the so-called world, knows everything about Slobodan Milosevic. The so-called world knows the truth. This is why the so-called world is absent today, and not only today, and not only here.

Quotes

To Müller's interjection that the Serbian writer Biljana Srbljanovic says that he, Handke, has no idea that Milosevic had members of the opposition murdered on the street, he answers. "That's simply not true. There was a totally free press in Yugoslavia. And there was the West's economic embargo, which gave rise to mafia-like structures. These little mafia groups fought each other. How can that be connected to Milosevic? ... It's shameless to claim that. This girl was asked by Spiegel, which backed the war, to keep a journal during the Nato war against Yugoslavia. As the bombs were falling, she wrote that things were totally safe, just a bit of glass shattering here and there. In truth, over a thousand Serbs died in this war. This woman is a whore to the West. That's what I call it." [3]
