THE HAGUE, Netherlands –– Presidential hopeful Wesley Clark began testifying behind closed doors Monday in Slobodan Milosevic's war crimes trial, facing his former wartime foe for the first time since the ex–Yugoslav leader was ousted in 2000.

Clark, a retired four–star general and former NATO supreme commander, was taking a hiatus from his campaign for the Democratic presidential nomination for two days of testimony at the Yugoslav war crimes tribunal at The Hague.

He entered an unusually quiet tribunal courtroom without making any comment as he is barred under court rules from discussing the hearings.

Most of Milosevic's trial, which began in February 2002, has been public, but the United States won an agreement from the tribunal to keep Clark's appearance closed for security reasons.
