Federation:
HDZ awaits an answer from the High Representative
Bozo Ljubic, Vice-president of HDZ and the head of HDZ negotiating team
said that HDZ has named a six-man team to negotiate with the international
community representatives, Oslobodjenje reported on Tuesday. Ljubic said
that he has on Friday sent a letter to the High Representative asking him
to start negotiations but has not received a response from Petritsch.
Ljubic still expects that the negotiations could start this week adding
that the international community did not comment on participation of any
of the members of the HDZ negotiating team, Oslobodjenje reported.
Charges to be raised against former Federation Defense Minister
Sarajevo papers reported that the Federation Defense Minister, Mijo Anic
has announced on Monday that the Ministry will raise charges against the
former Defense Minister, Miroslav Prce because he has not handed over the
necessary documents on the Croat component of the Federation Army.
All the deadlines have passed and Prce has not submitted the documents and
Minister Anic will ask the relevant authorities to raise criminal charges,
Antun Mrkonjic, Defense Ministry spokesman told the press.
``Minister Prce will have to explain why he failed to hand over the
documents and answer where these documents are now,'' Mrkonjic said.
All pensioners in Federation to receive minimal pensions in April
Both Oslobodenje and Dnevni Avaz reported that because of slow payments
into the Pension Fund and the fact that only 22 of the needed 40 million
KMs have been collected all pensioners might receive minimal pensions in
April. If nothing changes soon all pensioners will have to survive with
just 117 KM pensions they will receive, the daily said.
Under a contract between the Federation Defense Ministry and the World
Bank - 15 million Dollars to demobilised soldiers of the Federation Army
Split daily Slobodna Dalmacija reported that the first contracts of
employment for demobilized soldiers, whose new jobs will be financed by
the World Bank, will be signed on May 17. This agreement was made in
Sarajevo on Monday in a meeting of the World Bank representative Maniza
Naqui with the Federation Minister of Defense Mijo Anic and his Deputy
Ferid Buljubasic, in which the Director of the World Bank Mission to BiH,
Joseph Ingram, was present as well.
The first stage will include employment offers for 500 to 800 Federation
Army members who were demobilized in 1999 and 2000.
The World Bank allocated 15 million Dollars for this project and the
Netherlands, Italy and Norway are also willing to help.
Livno: Session of the Headquarters for Protection of Homeland War Dignity
Manipulations of the Croat army must stop
Slobodna Dalmacija reported that the Headquarters for Protection of
Homeland War Dignity and Croats' Rights in BiH called the political
leadership from their session in Livno to secure the funds for the payment
of salaries to the HVO members and to stop the political manipulations of
the Croat component of the Federation Army.
The Headquarters also requested that a meeting be arranged for next week
with the participation of the Cantonal associations of the Homeland War
and the representatives of the newly elected authorities in Canton 10, but
the press release from the Headquarters' session does not read what the
subject of the meeting should be.
Mostar: The Commission for Election and Appointment of Judges in the Herzegovina-Neretva Canton about Petritsch's decision and Milisic's
statement - Mostar judiciary neither depends on anyone nor conducts a
national segregation
The Commission for Election and Appointment of Judges in the
Herzegovina-Neretva Canton issued a press release regarding the transfer
of the jurisdiction for the HB-related events to the Canton Court in
Sarajevo, Slobodna Dalmacija said.
"Since Mr. Milisic was explicit in stating that the judiciary in Mostar is
not working independently only in the cases against Croats, it is clear
that he thinks that the independence of the judiciary, and consequently
its functioning in general, has been jeopardized by an undefined sort of
influence on the holders of judicial positions who work on the cases of
indicted Croats, and this narrows down the circle of the holders of
judicial positions who are not working independently."
The Commission appeals to OHR spokesperson Oleg Milisic to present it with
the evidence which would prove that individual judges in specific cases,
and especially in the cases against Croats, acted partially and illegally,
or were subject to influence, pressures, threats or interventions from any
side or for any purpose, so that the Commission can initiate the proper
legal proceedings in that regard.
The Commission says "it is necessary to react immediately and undertake
all the measures available to suppress the aforementioned negative
influence on the judiciary and eliminate the personnel who violated the
Code of Judges or Prosecutors."
"In that case," reads the press release, "there would be no need for a
transfer of the cases against persons of any nationality to either the
Canton Court in Sarajevo or any other court outside of our Canton or
Mostar."
There has been no reply to the HDZ's call for negotiations addressed to
the High Representative, and the HDZ's negotiating team leader Bozo Ljubic
stated: OHR has had no objections to the composition of the negotiating
team
Zagreb daily Vecernji List said that Bozo Ljubic, HDZ BiH Vice President
and the head of the party's negotiating team stated for Croat Radio
Herceg-Bosna on Monday that the High Representative has not replied to the
letter that the HDZ sent to him on Friday regarding a start of the
negotiations, but Ljubic expects the negotiations to start as soon as some
time this week.
"There have been talks all the time, but there have been no negotiations,"
stated Bozo Ljubic. He added that he has been advocating
institutionalisation of the negotiations with the international community
and the BiH authorities since the very beginning. He refuted the
allegations published in some of the Sarajevo newspapers, which quoted
sources in the OHR announcing that the international community would not
talk with HDZ senior officials Dragan Covic, Mijo Brajkovic and Martin
Raguz.
"The international community has not declared its opinion on any of the
negotiating team members," stated Ljubic.
He added that the principles contained in the Declaration of the Croat
National Assembly in BiH will serve as the platform for negotiations.
Ljubic asserted that the Croat National Assembly has not, "factually,"
established the Croat self-rule, but that the Inter-Cantonal Council was
"a forced means of achieving a full constitutional and realistic equality
which was completely abolished by the pre-election and post-election
engineering."
Bozo Ljubic believes that the future lies in "resolving problems within
the institutions of the system."
Similar reports were published also in Slobodna Dalmacija, Republika and
Vjesnik (see below)
Ljubic starts negotiations with Petritsch
Zagreb daily Vjesnik's Alenko Zornija said that "Although they were
advocating rather moderate attitudes since the beginning of the crisis,
Covic, Raguz and Brajkovic might be undesirable interlocutors for the IC,
but also for the parties of the Alliance because they were involved in the
project of the Croat autonomy which has never come to life officially. On
the other side, Ivo Vincetic and Rudo Vidovic are rather unknown party
members and they were included in the negotiating team primarily because
they wanted that the team members are coming from different BiH regions.
Although the international community prevented the establishment of the
self-rule (which has never been formally proclaimed) with the use of
force, the constitutional and legal position of the Croat people in BiH
has not been resolved. It is clear to the IC officials and the Alliance
parties that the problem exists and even prominent Croats from the block
of the ruling parties support the idea that the HDZ (that the large number
of people voted for) participates in the resolving of this problem.
Naturally, they insist that they work on it within the authority
institutions and through a parliamentary procedure," reads the Vjesnik
article.
Agreement with the IC to be checked through a referendum
Marko Tokic, the President of the Croat self-rule and Vice President of
the HDZ BiH, gave a special statement for 'Vjesnik' on the occasion of the
celebration of the 10th anniversary of preventing the tanks of the
so-called JNA to pass through Polog, a village near Siroki Brijeg.
Tokic stated: 'I believe that the High Representative, as well as all
those who want to negotiate, have been officially informed about it by the
recently appointed negotiating team of the HDZ BiH.'
Tokic stated that 'there is not a single Croat anymore who can personally
pass a decision that something was signed or agreed, but such a decision
has to undergo a check among the Croat people through a referendum.' He
expressed his belief that the negotiations with the international
representatives will be 'a long and difficult process'.
General Stanko Baja Sopta delivered a speech at the joint session of the
Municipal Council of Siroki Brijeg and the HDZ Municipal Board of Siroki
Brijeg on the occasion of the 10th Anniversary of preventing the tanks
from passing through Polog. He stressed that the Croat unity and readiness
to sacrifice were crucial for the success of the Croat people in the
creation of the Croat(ian) state and in the struggle for equality and
sovereignty in BiH. He called on the Croats not to be disunited but 'to
stand united as they did in Polog 10 years ago when they clearly showed
the enemies that they could not pass,' reports Vjesnik
Jadranko Prlic, Chairman of the Croat Coordination, stated in Mostar
yesterday: Croats need to elect their own representatives to the Houses of
Peoples
Vecernji List reported that Dr. Jadranko Prlic, the BiH Deputy Minister of
Foreign Trade and Chairman of the Croat Coordination, condemned the
incidents in Banja Luka and Trebinje and appealed to the authorities and
the international community to deal with the violent persons.
Prlic added that the "most recently displayed violence represents
retrograde trends which drive BiH farther from the world."
Vecernji List says that Prlic could not explain the differences between
the program of the Croat Coordination and the HNS Platform of a
Self-sustainable BiH.
"Prlic said that the Coordination stands for the BiH Election Law that
would allow members of each of the peoples to elect their own
representatives to the Houses of Peoples, which is exactly why the HDZ,
the party that Prlic left last year, refused to participate in the
authorities and established the temporary Croat self-rule. Prlic and most
of the Croat Coordination member parties agreed to participate in the
authorities in accordance with the unconstitutional election rules for the
Houses of Peoples passed by the OSCE.
In his press conference, Prlic also stood for the principle that BiH
Presidency Members be elected in the House of Peoples, which is also a
part of the HDZ's Platform of Negotiations, just like the forming of a
common BiH army with national components, reads the Vecernji List article.

RS Interior Ministry says perpetrator of Trebinje incidents identified
RS Interior Ministry officials told the press that some of the
perpetrators of violent attacks in Trebinje on Saturday have been
identified. Zoran Glusac, RS MUP spokesman said that legal action will be
carried out against the persons identified as key players of Trebinje
incidents when several people, including representatives of the
international community were injured.
Explosive device thrown at the house of Trebinje Islamic Community head
Sarajevo papers reported that an explosive device was thrown on Sunday
night at the house of the head of the Islamic Community in Trebinje, Izet
Capin. Fortunately, there were no wounded but the house and the
surrounding were damaged. Capin told the press that he will remain in
Trebinje despite the attack because it is his town as well.
OHR Special Envoy in Trebinje says police behavior hurts more than blows
Daniel Ruiz, OHR Special Envoy in Trebinje, who was attacked on Saturday
in an interview told Dnevni Avaz that more than the ``cowardly and inhuman
behavior of police hurt him more than the blows.''
``I will leave Trebinje only once the police arrests the perpetrators and
when they receive adequate jail sentences,'' Ruiz told the daily.
RS Prime Minister says no indicted war crimes suspects live in the RS
RS Prime Minister, Mladen Ivanic told reporters that there are no indicted
war crimes suspects in the RS. Ivanic told Belgrade daily Blic that ``not
a single person publicly indicted by The Hague Tribunal is currently in
the RS.''
Ivanic also said that for him the ICTY is a ``one-sided court because the
entire war-time leadership of the RS is accused of war crimes as opposed
to key persons from the Bosniaks and Croat people.''
International community related issues:
Sarajevo: Cardinal Puljic meets with Dr. Christian Schwarz-Shilling, the
International Mediator for the Federation and Republika Srpska- All in
favour of dialogue, but no one is talking
Slobodna Dalmacija said that the Vrhbosna Archbishop Cardinal Vinko Puljic
yesterday met with Dr. Christian Schwarz-Schilling, the International
Mediator for the Federation and Republika Srpska.
Dr. Schwarz-Schilling said he was surprised with the fact that there is so
much talk about a dialogue, but no one is talking with the purpose of
resolving the problems.
Cardinal Puljic reiterated that the root of the problems lies in the wrong
moves made prior to the elections. There was a mistake that no one would
admit or correct, stated Cardinal Puljic. He asked his guest to use his
authority and make sure that SFOR actions be as few as possible in the
future as those sow disturbance and insecurity among the people and make
the people move from this region.
Cardinal Puljic expressed his disapproval of the OHR, which, as he said,
applies double standards as far as returnees are concerned. While around
8,000 Serbs have returned to Drvar alone, which deserves every
commendation, around 2,500 Croats have returned to the entire territory of
Republika Srpska, and the OHR is doing too little to advance returns to
that territory.
Both of them agreed that the international community and the Croat
political officials have made too many wrong moves, but that all of the
Croat people must not be punished for that.
OHR will talk but will not negotiate with the HDZ
Bosnian Croat news agency Habena reported on Tuesday afternoon that OHR
spokesman, Oleg Milisic, told a stated today that there is no basis for
any negotiations between the OHR and the HDZ.
At a press conference in Sarajevo Milisic said that the HDZ, or rather
the elected representatives of this party, should return to the legal
government institutions, for it is their obligation to the electorate that
had placed confidence in them. The HDZ is expected to behave responsibly,
the OHR spokesman added.
Speaking about a dialogue, the OHR thinks that the HDZ representatives
should seek solutions through the legal institutions and in the talks with
legal BiH authorities.
According to Milisic the OHR is ready to talk with HDZ representatives who
had not taken part in counter-constitutional activities, but negotiations
are out of the question.
Banja Luka incidents and reactions:
Incidents in Banja Luka and reactions
Sarajevo papers on Tuesday seemed to have room only for one story - the
incidents in Banja Luka and the reactions.
``Fascism on the streets of Banja Luka,'' reads Oslobodjenje's headline.
``After Trebinje, even worse in Banja Luka - Fascist encouraged by RS
authorities,'' Dnevni Avaz said.
Papers said that scores of people were wounded in the rampage of Serb
nationalists who prevented the ceremony of laying of the cornerstone for
the Ferhadija mosque in Banja Luka on Monday. In addition to reports on
the incident papers carry numerous reactions of local and international
officials. Oslobodjenje quotes the High Representative, Wolfgang Petritsch
as saying that the incidents were a ``terrorist attack on the rule of law,
human rights and freedom of religion.''
``What happened in Trebinje as well as Banja Luka has to be seriously
punished in order to prevent such things from happening again,'' Petritsch
said.
Dnevni Avaz quotes the High Representative as saying that he finds the RS
authorities responsible for the violence.
US Ambassador to BiH, Thomas Miller said that the US government most
strongly condemns the actions of demonstrators in Banja Luka and will hold
the RS authorities responsible.
Head of UN Mission to BiH, Jacques Paul Klein, who was present at the
ceremony that turned into an incident said that this was an action of
extremists, who are ``obviously well organized.''
BiH Foreign Minister, Zlatko Lagumdzija who was personally one of the
targets of the extremist said that Fascism in BiH has not been conquered
and that the events in Banja Luka clearly show that.
Head of the Islamic Community, Reis-ul-Ulema, Mustafa Ceric told a news
conference that Bosnian Serb member of BiH Presidency, Zivko Radisic and
RS President, Mirko Sarovic should resign from their post ``in the name of
civilization.''
RS top authorities held a meeting on Tuesday and condemned the violence in
Banja Luka. The office of the RS President, Mirko Sarovic in a statement
said that RS authorities feel that every individual in the RS has to have
full freedom of religion.
``However, we are against giving political motivation to events that
essentially have religious character as they initiated national tensions
and slow down the building of trust in the country,'' the statement from
Sarovic's office said.
According to RTRS report during the meeting the RS Interior Minister,
Perica Bundalo and Chief of Banja Luka police, Vladimir Tutus have offered
to resign from their posts.
High Representative appalled at outbreak of violence in Banja Luka
Bosniak member of the BiH Presidency calls for an extraordinary Presidency meeting

extraordinary meeting of the Presidency that is to discuss the violence in
Banja Luka. The Presidency is to meet on Tuesday morning and will discuss
the events both in Trebinje and Banja Luka, papers said.
Report on Banja Luka Incident - Ferhadija Mosque Destroyed Again
Today's edition of "Nezavisne novine" carries lengthy report on the
Incident that happened in Banja Luka yesterday when the corner stone for
Ferhat Pasha's mosque in Banja Luka was supposed to be laid. The report
begins with flyers that appeared in Banja Luka yesterday morning in which
anonymous author called on Serbs to prevent the ceremony from taking
place. It seems that the contents of the flyers anticipated the events
that happened during the day. Demonstrators, gathered across the site
where Ferhadija once used to be, started singing chetnik's songs and broke
the windshield on Lagumdzija's car. At that moment one could also see a
person who was carrying pig's head stuck on a picket. The crowd was
growing and the RS police forces tried to separate the crowd from Bosnikas
who arrived to Banja Luka. Few minutes later, when Jacques Klein arrived,
the crowd managed to break the police cordon and the beating of Bosniaks
who were at the site began. Fortunately many of them took shelter in the
IVZ building together with Mr. Lagumdzija, Austrian Ambassador Jandl and
three RS ministers. Authors of the article were at the spot when 18-year
old guy beat up older Bosniak man. When he finished with it few guys
surrounded the man and started chanting: "Kill, kill, kill the Turk". At 2
o'clock PM Prime Minister Mladen Ivanic arrives at the site and warns that
he will not leave the IVZ building till the last person from the building
is not evacuated. In a meantime, SDS leaders, Sarovic, Cavic and Kalinic
are tried to calm the situation down calling on demonstrators to disperse,
but they were not very successful in their attempts. The demonstrators set
on fire several buses with which Bosniaks arrived to Banja Luka. The BL
Firemen tried to extinguish the fire but demonstrators prevented them from
doing their job. After that the crowd started attacking and trashing
shops owned by non-Serbs. According to unofficial information, three BL
secondary schools discharged students early in the morning which may
indicate that well prepared organizers stand behind the event.
Wolfgang Petritsch Says RS Authorities Are Responsible for Violence
Both BL dailies carried the entire OHR Press release in the HR blames the
RS authorities for yesterday' s incident in Banja Luka.
Interview With Thomas Miller - RS Leadership Is Responsible
Today's edition of "Nezavisne novine" carries interview with US Ambassador
to BiH Thomas Miller in which he explains his views on the Banja Luka
incident and possible consequences the RS will have to take for it. He
says that there are many nice people in the RS but there is also a certain
number of people who support violence and who are responsible for the
incident that took place in Trebinje and Banja Luka. Ambassador Miller
also thinks that the RS leadership is responsible for these incidents.
"When the crowd headed towards us I saw policemen who were doing nothing
to prevent it, they were just standing by, which I find totally
irresponsible. Commenting on consequences of the BL and Trebinje
incidents, Miller says that the biggest losers are RS citizens. "The fact
is that the RS Police cannot fulfil its basic duties, that is, compliance
with law and maintenance of peace and order, and the whole world will view
this message in this way. How can you expect investments if you are not
capable of maintaining peace and order?", says Mr. Miller. US Ambassador
Miller also criticizes RS President and Vice-president, Sarovic and Cavic
for their failure to react to Trebinje and Banja Luka incidents duly. "Our
office was trying to get in touch with RS President and the Vice-president
but they were not available. How is it possible to have a crisis like this
one and not being able to contact them. What kind of message is that?",
says Mr. Miller
Graham Hans Says Riots And Violence Were Orchestrated By SDS
Reporter of "Nezavisne novine" made a brief interview with British
Ambassador to BiH Mr. Graham Hand while his was "captured" in the IVZ
building. Ambassador Hand says that they will all stay together with the
Prime Minister Ivanic till evacuation of all innocent persons ends. "I
think this is a shame. The people have been encouraged to come here and in
return they are hurt. Watching older people bleeding was really dreadful.
These people did not do any harm to anybody", says Mr. Hand.
Jacques Paul Klein Condemns Preventing of Laying Corner Stone for
Ferhadija Mosque - UN Mission Cannot Demand Sanctions for RS
UN Special Envoy, Jacques Paul Klein strongly condemns the incident that
happened yesterday in Banja Luka. Commenting on possible introduction of
sanctions to the RS Mr. Klein says that UN as a diplomatic body cannot
demand introduction of sanctions to the RS and there is nothing the UN can
do in that regard. As to those who attacked the innocent civilians, Mr.
Klein says that this incident will be widely condemned. "It is a shame
that such a small group of people represents the entire nation and you can
only imagine how the international media will view these events. The
public will be told that Serbs once again are terrorizing innocent men and
women. What kind of heroism is that", says Mr. Klein. He commended work of
the RS Special Police Squad who, as he says, managed to maintain peace and
order. "The Police forces did their best and I can also say a great deal
of work. The Special Squad set up the cordon around the IVZ building,
which was very efficient and enabled older people who took shelter in the
IVZ building to be evacuated", says Mr. Klein.
Report on Meeting of RS Leadership - Politicized Religious Event
Both BL dailies report on the meeting of the BL leadership that took place
last night in Banja Luka. The meeting was attended by RS President and
Vice-president, Sarovic and Cavic, Prime Minister, Mladen Ivanic, RS NA
Speaker, Dragan Kalinic, BiH Presidency member, Zivko Radisic, RS Minister
of Internal Affairs, Perica Bundalo and Chief of the RS Intelligence
Service (OBS), Dobro Planojevic. After the meeting they issued press
release in which they strongly condemned yesterday's incident and violence
in Banja Luka and requested the RS Ministry of Interiors to conduct
investigation about the incidents and to identify perpetrators and
instigators, regardless of the side they represent. (Note: Late last night
the RTRS reported that Chief of Banja Luka Police, Mr. Tutus and RS
Minister of Interiors, Perica Bundalo offered their resignations.)
Mladen Ivanic Says RS Did Not Need This
Both BL dailies quote Prime Minister, Mladen Ivanic as saying that it is
evident that this event will be extremely detrimental to international
positions of the RS. "The RS did not need this incident. Now we have to
soberly analyze everything that happened. What I said million times is
that citizens have to have a possibility to express their religious
beliefs. It is a minimum every civilized country has to provide and we
will keep insisting on it. I think there was too much politics in this
event. About reconstruction of the mosque as well. The fact is that the
incident took place and now we will have to face the consequences.
However, stand of the RS Government is that law is foe everyone. I am
quite certain that reaction of the IC will be very harsh", says Mr.
Ivanic.
Zlatko Lagumdzija - Ask Ivanic and Klain Who Is Responsible
After he was evacuated from the IVZ building BiH Foreign Minister, Zlatko
Lagumdzija made a statement to the press: "I hope that the people who
participated in the incident will be held accountable. This does not
credit any of the participants. As to responsibility, you should ask Mr.
Ivanic and Mr. Klein.
Sulejman Tihic Says This Is Just Another Trebinje Scenario
Both BL dailies quote Vice-president of the RS NA, Sulejman Tihic as
saying that the Banja Luka incident is repeat of the Saturday's incident
in Trebinje, but that the BL incident was much better organized and much
more dangerous. The IC is responsible for it as much as the RS Government.
