In a letter to Ashdown, published on Saturday by the Catholic News
Agency (KTA), bishop Komarica said he was unpleasantly surprised
with information on the way the EU's CARDS programme would this year
finance the reconstruction and return in Bosnia.
The entire north-west and north area of the Republika Srpska is
excluding from the this year CARDS programme.
Komarica told Ashdown that only 6,000 displaced Croats had returned
to the Republika Srpska so far.
