Tomorrow, the High Representative Carlos Westendorp and Brcko Supervisor Bill Farrand will meet with the RS National Assembly Expert Commission on Brcko.
The High Representative warmly welcomes this early invitation from the Commission to discuss their views. He hopes that the National Assembly Commission can become fully engaged on the interpretation and implementation of the Brcko Award.
The High Representative also believes that meetings over recent days have begun to address the issues that Republika Srpska representatives have raised. He has repeated that he will support them in encouraging all international representatives to consider and resolve their concerns.
The High Representative will stress to the Commission his previous guarantee that the territory of the Republika Srpska will remain continuous. He will also propose solutions to other issues that have been raised, such as the rights of displaced persons. He believes that tomorrow’s meeting will be an important first step, and hopes that the process of interpreting the Brcko Award will continue.
