BELGRADE, Oct 11 (Hina) - Vojislav Seselj, one of several Yugoslav
officials mentioned in the Hague war crimes tribunal's indictment
against Slobodan Milosevic, will go to The Hague "as soon as (he)
get(s) a visa" for the Netherlands.
Talking to reporters in Belgrade on Thursday, the "red Chetnik
duke", as he has often been called, said he was "satisfied" his name
was mentioned on the expanded indictment against Yugoslavia's
former head of state.
He asserted the indictment charged Milosevic "with what I'm proud
of."
"I'm going to The Hague as soon as I get the visa, but they still
won't give it to me," Seselj said referring to the fact that a few
weeks ago, he allegedly requested a Dutch visa to "visit (former
Bosnian Serb leader Momcilo) Krajisnik and the other Serb heroes."
Gen. Aleksandar Vasiljevic, a former chief of Yugoslavia's
military intelligence, said today he was "at a loss" as to why he was
mentioned in the Milosevic indictment, expanded this week to
include war crimes in Croatia.
Vasiljevic told Belgrade's NIN weekly he was "particularly
surprised" to be mentioned among people who "eliminated me at one
time."
The general declined to comment on the indictment.
