JUNE 17 1997 EVENING
NEWS REVIEW, REPUBLIKA SRPSKA
HAMBURG - The president in the B-H Presidency Momcilo Krajisnik, warned
that the Dayton B-H can survive only on the principles of equality, parity
and decisions made by consensus, which are the basic principles of the
Dayton agreement. In an interview for the German "Neues Deutchland",
president Krajisnik dismissed suggestions that the Serbs impede the
implementation of the Dayton agreement, and warned that "RS was ready for
an early establishment of the joint bodies, deemed to replace the bodies
controlled exclusively by Muslims". RS is committed for a double parity in
dealing with bilateral problems and for a triple parity when discussion is
on national interests and human rights of all three peoples, but it was not
before the international pressure that the Muslim side agreed to such
relations, stated president Krajisnik.
BRCKO - The high representative of the international community, Carl Bildt,
who is to leave his post in a few next days, stated in Brcko that this city
determines future of the overall peace process. "Mostar is a test for
survival of B-H Federation, Sarajevo is the picture of a future B-H, while
Brcko is the city crucial to B-H peace prospects", stated Bildt. As a major
omission in his two-year mandate, Bildt mentioned the failure of the
international community to make the orderly transition of power in Sarajevo.
SARAJEVO - SFOR presented its "Open Skies" operation at the Sarajevo
airport, purposed to prevent any intention of aggression by the former
warring sides in B-H. The "Open Skies" operation will take place in line
with the SFOR mandate, and will be continued after the peace troops
withdraw from the region. The presentation was entrusted to Hungarian Air
Force Command, which representatives will carry out testing flights in the
next two days, in addition to controls of military and other contingents
and screening of ground from 3,000 meters altitude.
THESALONIKI - Under the title "Balkan Dinosaurs" the Greek paper
Elephetropypya publishes an article about presidents of Serbia and Croatia,
Slobodan Milosevic and Franjo Tudjman, describing them as the leaders who
fight their last battles. "The Serbian president battles for the
presidential post of new Yugoslavia, and Croatian president struggles to
permanently keep his post of Croatia's first man. Both of them dispose of a
strong factor - the assurances from the great powers that they are the only
guarantees of stability not only in their respective countries, but also in
the regions dependent on Belgrade and Zagreb".
