YUGOSLAV PRESIDENT HOLDS TALKS WITH MONTENEGRIN PARTIES

BELGRADE, July 3 (Hina) - Yugoslav President Vojislav Kostunica will appoint a new Yugoslav government, probably at the start of next week, said representatives of Montenegrin coalition 'Together for Yugoslavia', who on Tuesday held consultations with Kostnica in Belgrade. The new Yugoslav government will include the current partner from Montenegro (Socialist People's Party (SNP), and another two parties from that republic - People's Party (NP) and the Serb People's Party (SNS). Prime Minister-designate is likely to be a member of the SNP. Those were conclusions from today's consultations between Kostunica and the said parties. SNP and SNS have seats in the federal assembly, while only the NP is without a representative in the parliament. These parties asked Kostunica to draw up a new agreement with the Serbian ruling coalition DOS (DOS and 'Together For Yugoslavia' are the ruling coalition at the federal level), and they also insist on re-defining the relations between Serbia and Montenegro which make up the current Federal Republic of Yugoslavia (FRY). The new prime minister-designate is likely to be Predrag Bulatovic, the president of the SNP, after an SNP member, Zoran Zizic, the previous Yugoslav Premier, tendered resignation over his disagreement with Slobodan Milosevic's transfer to the ICTY in The Hague.
