    Yugoslav Foreign Minister, Milan Milutinovic, addressing the participants of the Peace Conference in London underlined that The Federal Republic of Yugoslavia supports the further engaging of the international community in Bosnia and Herzegovina, and will, as always, fully contribute to the consistent and complete implementation of the Peace Agreement. Federal Republic of Yugoslavia regards this as means of the permanent reinforcement of peace, stability, economic and social development, not only in Bosnia and Herzegovina, but in the entire region. FRY will evolve its relations with Bosnia and Herzegovina in the spirit of good neighborhood and mutually useful cooperation, according to Slobodan Milosevic's and Alija Izetbegovic's Paris Statement, this too being an important contribution to the stabilization, said the Minister. Following the principles of the common statement, said also Milutinovic, we will set to conclude the agreement on the normalization of relations immediately after constitution of the Sarajevo Administration. Milutinovic then underlined that " following our consistent peace policy and role of principle in the peace process, as well as our basic contribution in achieving peace, we rightfully expect to be allowed to take our legitimate place in all the international organizations and institutions ".

    [02] THE HAGUE TRACING OLUJA (STORM)

    Yesterday, the investigators of The Hague Tribunal started the hearings of Serbs, witnesses of the Croat crimes in the armed aggression against Krajina, in August last year. During the following ten days the judges from The Hague Tribunal will hear out about forty witnesses, recommended by the Documentation Center of Krajina, Veritas and the Union of Camp Inmates. According to the documentation of Veritas, during Oluja over two thousand Serbs were killed or are missing. There is also an investigation on the crimes of the Croatian Aviation, bombarding the columns of refugees. Crimes in Krajina over the innocent civilians are performed and after OLUJA . According to the data of the Croatian Helsinki Board from Zagreb, until now about one thousand of Serbs who listened to Tudjman and stayed in Krajina were killed. The investigation of the Croat crimes during and after OLUJA started ten months ago, when the judges from the Hague Tribunal heard out fifty Serbs, witnesses and now refugees in Republic of Srpska. The Hague Tribunal has numerous proofs of the Croatian crimes performed on Serbs in Krajina. Besides the ones, performed during OLUJA, The Tribunal has the documentation on the crimes performed in 1991 on 120 Serbs in Gospic, then during the aggression against Miljevci, Maslenica and Divoselo in Lika, as well as the dossiers on about 400 Serbs killed during the operation in Western Slavonia.

    [03] CROAT AUTHORITIES RESPONSIBLE FOR IMPEDIMENT OF REINTEGRATION

    In the interview given to the Zagreb newspaper Globus, the UNTAES Transitory Administrator, Mr. Jaques Klein said that the reason for the prolongation of the UNTAES mandate is the lack of assistance and support of the Croatian authorities and a concentrated campaign of the Croatian media against us and our mandate. Both the members of the Contact Group and in New York know very well what we have done here and they consider that the UNTAES presence and the supervision are still necessary because of the lack of a serious support from the Croatian authorities", said Mr. Klein. Pointing out that the concrete cooperation of the Croat authorities is essential, Klein also said that citizenship (domovnica) should be given as soon as possible, to enable elections that should be held by spring next year.

    [04] POISONOUS GIFTS

    The group of French intellectuals, known by their persistent demand to bomb Belgrade and entire Serbia, addressed their letter of support through the newspaper Nasa Borba to the participants of demonstrations of the Coalition Zajedno (Together). Commenting this, the French writer and publicist, Luis Dalmas pointed out the double standards of the people who again meddle with the interior affairs of another country. " Since the beginning of the events in the former Yugoslavia I did not allow myself to assume an attitude toward the interior affairs of a country. Being French and a foreigner I do not consider myself qualified nor competent for this, says Mr. Delmas beginning his letter addressed to the Editor in Chief of Nasa Borba. " I did react at the bias and lies of the big international media that, at one side, attributed to the Serbs the sole responsibility for all the crimes, and on the other side, underestimated the danger of Islam Fundamentalism penetrating the heart of Europe." underlines Mr. Delmas. " Starting from those double standards, and only based on this, that is, not judging even the present Authorities in Belgrade, or the Opposition resisting it, I am surprised that you have, not commenting it, published the letter signed by the French. Some of the signers of this statement, warns Mr. Delmas, have for years on collected the worse slanders and urged the most vindictive actions against the entire Serbian nation. Having the impudence to state in this letter that "no one of us has ever identified the Serbian nation with the politicians and military persons in authority', they are telling outrageous lies, says Delmas. Their words and actions witness that they never stopped satanizing all Serbs, nor ever making a difference between the people and the authorities in power, that they now state they have been making, points out Delmas. They have always made that amalgam, says Delmas and adds " when Allen Finkelkraut defended Croatia, Croatia was Tudjman, when Bernard Anri Levy advocated the interests of Bosnia, Bosnia was Izetbegovic, when attacking Milosevic, Milosevic was the whole of Serbia. Today they believe that they can see the "good' Serbs in the masses expelled from the international community. That is their right. As it is yours, to ask for support everywhere. But, in your shoes, I would not trust such allies. Because of their today's smiles, you must not forget their yesterday's enmity, Mr. Delas is warning the editorial staff of Nasa Borba.

    [05] SERBIAN PRIVATE BUSINESSMEN HAVE HUNDREDS OF RELIABLE PROJECTS

    Mr. Radoje Djukic, Serbian Minister of Private Enterprise received the representatives of ten leading consulting group OSPREY from London, headed by the Executive Manager Clive Smith. The goal of the English experts' visit is to research the conditions of business in our market and the possibility of associating Yugoslav and British firms. Their report will be the foundation for the Yugoslav firms to join the program financed by the British side in the Eastern and Middle European countries. Minister Djukic said that the private enterprise in Serbia has a long-lasting tradition, takes an ever larger role in the social product and employs more and more workers. Private businessmen in Serbia have today several hundreds of very reliable projects that can not be realized because of the lack of funds.

    [06] TOGETHER IN THE AFRICAN MARKET

    At the Federal Head Office for the turnover of special purpose goods the Agreement on joint venture of about twenty Yugoslav firms in the South of Sahara region countries was confirmed. The Speaker of the Federal Head Office, Ms. Svetlana Sukaj-Markovic underlined that the dependence of Yugoslav industry on the raw material from the South of Sahara region countries opens concrete possibilities for the disposition of our goods, services and technologies through the so called parallel transactions. According to the experts, the value of transactions in the beginning should amount up to about 40 billions of dollars per year. Based on the Protocol of cooperation, signed during the visit of Yugoslav President Lilic to these parts, the form of the continuous presence in the Zimbabwean market will be decided, and through it, the expansion toward the southern regions of the African continent and choosing of adequate partners in Ghana and Guinea, announced Ms. Sujak-Markovic.

    [07] YUGOSLAVIA PARTICIPATES AT THE SESSION OF ASSOCIATION OF BALKAN CHAMBERS

As announced before, the session will be attended by the representatives of the Chambers of Commerce of Macedonia, Bulgaria, Greece, Romania. Cyprus, Turkey and Albania.

Yugoslav executives are of opinion, says Mira Lukic, that the simplification of regulative in each of the Balkan countries would improve the cooperation.
