Draskovic said that "everything that burdens the relations between the
two countries should be eliminated so that we can establish a European
system under which borders will exist on the map, but not in practice,
and we will again be able to trade and travel freely. We must become
Europe within in order to be accepted by Europe."
Asked why he would not travel to Zagreb as part of the delegation of
Serbia-Montenegro, Draskovic said he did not want to comment on media
speculation. "There was an idea that I should travel to Zagreb on May
24 together with President Marovic, but later it was arranged that I
should play host to the Croatian Foreign Minister, Mr Zuzul, on May
28," he said.
Draskovic is on his first official visit to Washington where he has
met Secretary of State Colin Powell and some members of Congress. He
is due to present his government's plan for the resolution of the
Kosovo problem before the UN Security Council on Tuesday.
