After the talks, Eide and Prskalo described the situation in Mostar as
very difficult.
The talks had focused on the International Police Task Force (IPTF)
report on incidents in Mostar of 10 February, Eide said, adding that he had
arrived in Mostar to forward recommendations about the necessity of
implementing directives of the international community.
The IPTF, with the cooperation of Bildt's Office, are preparing a new
report about the events of 10 February which would consider wider
circumstances of the events. This new report, Eide stressed, did not exclude
conclusions from the first report.
Asked whether the fact that SFOR had never been informed about the
arrival of Bosniacs to the cemetery in Liska Street in west Mostar on 10
February would correct the first report (issued this week), Eide said that
the international community firmly stood behind the first report.
Prskalo said he had conveyed the Croat side's stance that the IPTF
report on the events in Mostar on 10 February was not complete.
"I hope the new report will consider and present the overall situation
more genuinely," Prskalo said.
Eide announced he would meet the head of Bildt's Regional Office in
Orucevic.
