NEWS REVIEW, REPUBLIKA SRPSKA
SARAJEVO - Due to the invitation to the Republika Srpska (RS) minister of
education, science and culture, to attend the solemn proclamation of
Thessaloniki as a city of the European culture in 1997, RS vice-president
Velibor Ostojic received in Pale the charge d'affaires of the Greek Embassy
in Sarajevo, Rusoss Kunduros."We have agreed to that the RS minister of
education, culture and science will be present at the meeting of ministers
of culture to be held in Thessaloniki within the next week and I believe
that the Government will made such a decision", said Ostojic after the
meeting, adding that on that occasion they have also exchanged the
statements of principle about some current issues in the region. Ostojic
mentioned that they also dealt with the improvement of relations between
the two countries, for which, as he stressed, both states are interested in.
SARAJEVO - The president of the RS Economic Council (PK RS), Bozidar Antic,
talked in Pale with the advisors to the high representative for economic
affairs, Thomas Shiller and Susumo Uedo about the establishment of contacts
between RS and the Federation of B&H in the field of economy and the
location and role of the two Councils. After the meeting, Antic stated
that the PK RS accepts the cooperation with the B&H Economic
Council but only "on the equal basis and the basis of the market
and economic interests of our subjects". The PK RS president
pointed out that these are the first steps towards the formal and
legal regulation of these relations which are quite complex and
have yet to be solved, for it appears that the non-existing B&H Economic
Council is illegally representing the RS economy.
AMSTERDAM - The discussions which are going on for the past few days in
Holland about what really had happened in Srebrenica in 1995, when the city
was under the UNPROFOR Dutch Battalion's protection, were not fruitful,
except for the increasing of tensions in the military top of this country.
A several-day-long meeting of 15 senior military officials held in the
special operative premises of the Supreme Headquarter, of which
the public should have known nothing, was the reason for new
mutual accusations and unpleasant words.

Belgrade so to offer them the "symbolic protection".

to the UN Security Council about the peaceful reintegration of the district
and in which the formation of a united Serb district was not even mentioned,
Zigic concluded that the letter was forwarded without prior consultations
with and consent of the Serb side.
