HAMBURG - The Hague Tribunal's decision confirming the indictments and arrest warrants against president Radovan Karad zic and general Ratko Mladic has no any practical value, assess the German press.

SARAJEVO - A year after the Serb forces liberated Srebreni ca, a debate among the Muslims extends over Muslim authorities and army's responsibility for the loss of this enclave. Ibran Mustafic, a deputy from Srebrenica in the Muslim Parliament, accused Alija Izetbegovic and the top Muslim authorities of betraying and scarifying this city in July, 1995. On the other hand, the Muslim army commander Rasim Delic is shifting responsi bility for the fall of the enclave to Srebrenica officers and soldiers.
