SRT transmission

Even though he denies having taken the stolen TV transmitter pieces, Mr. Krajisnik has made clear in contacts with the International Community that he is in a position to hand them back if he chooses.

So far, however, he has declined to do so, thereby depriving the whole of the Eastern RS of SRT programming. Using stolen property against the RS population in this way is utterly reprehensible.

The International Community is making every effort to restore full SRT transmission. When this becomes possible, we will, of course, ensure that all political parties have access to the SRT network in time for the pre-election period.
