Trump called military intervention under Bill Clinton to stop genocide a "big mistake.
"The bombing of Serbs, who were our allies in both world wars, was a big mistake, Trump told the Serbian weekly magazine Nedeljnik for an article published on its website Thursday. Serbians are very good people. Unfortunately, the Clinton administration caused them a lot of harm, but also throughout the Balkans, which they made a mess out of."
The interview was conducted via email correspondence with a Trump campaign senior adviser, Suzanne Ryder Jaworowski, who is also campaign manager for the state of Indiana, Nedeljnik's managing editor, Marko Prelevic, told Newsweek.

Look, first of all, let me just say about Trump, who I admire and Ive tried to help as much as I can. Theres a big Trump and a little Trump, Gingrich said on Fox Business Thursday morning in a comment that evoked Trump's slam on Marco Rubio as "Little Marco." The little Trump is frankly pathetic. I mean, hes mad over not getting a phone call?

We walked into that room alone, and Trump shut the door behind us. I turned around, and within seconds, he was pushing me against the wall, and forcing his tongue down my throat.
Now, Im a tall, strapping girl who grew up wrestling two giant brothers. I even once sparred with Mike Tyson. It takes a lot to push me. But Trump is much biggera looming figureand he was fast, taking me by surprise, and throwing me off balance.
I was stunned. And I was grateful when Trumps longtime butler burst into the room a minute later, as I tried to unpin myself.
The butler informed us that Melania would be down momentarily, and it was time to resume the interview. I was still in shock, and remained speechless as we both followed him to an outdoor patio overlooking the grounds. In those few minutes alone with Trump, my self-esteem crashed to zero. How could the actions of one man make feel so utterly violated? Id been interviewing A-list celebrities for over 20 years, but what hed done was a first. Did he think Id be flattered?
I tried to act normal. I had a job to do, and I was determined to do it. I sat in a chair that faced Trump, who waited for his wife on a loveseat. The butler left us, and I fumbled with my tape recorder. Trump smiled and leaned forward.
You know were going to have an affair, dont you? he declared, in the same confident tone he uses when he says hes going to make America great again. Have you ever been to Peter Lugers for steaks? Ill take you. Were going to have an affair, Im telling you. He also referenced the infamous cover of the New York Post during his affair with Marla Maples. You remember, he said. Best Sex I Ever Had.
Melania walked in just then, serene and glowing. Donald instantly reverted back to doting husband mode, as if nothing had happened, and we continued our interview about their wedded bliss. I nodded at his hollow words and smiled at his jokes, but I was nauseated. It didnt seem to register to him in the slightest that what hed done might have hurt or offended me, or his wife.
An hour later, I was back at my hotel. My shock began to wear off, and was replaced by anger. I kept thinking, Why didnt I slug him? Why couldnt I say anything?
The next morning, anger became fear. Earlier in my trip, I had tried to arrange a session at Mar-a-Lagos spa for my chronic neck problemthe spa was part of a private resort separate from the Trump residencebut they were booked up. Trump had gotten wind of that before the interview, and called himself, asking the top massage therapist if he would come in extra early to see me, as a favor to him.
Id been up all night worryinghad I done something to encourage his behavior? But I decided to keep the keep the appointment. I was running late, and rushed to the spa with my luggage in tow. I found my designated therapist in a panic.
Im so, so sorry, I apologized, Can we do 30 minutes and Ill pay you for the whole hour?
Never mind that. Mr. Trump was here waiting for you!
What? Where?
Here. In the massage room. Waiting for you. He waited 15 minutes, then had to leave for a meeting.
But why was he here? I asked. Is he coming back?
The therapist shrugged. I lay on the massage table, but my eyes were on the doorknob the entire time. Hes going to show up and this guys going to let him in with me half-naked on a table. I cut the session short, got dressed, and left for the airport.
