BOSNIAN PRESIDENCY CONSIDERS CENTRAL BANK ESTABLISHMENT

SARAJEVO, March 10 (Hina) - Bosnia-Herzegovina's three-man Presidency, on Monday discussed establishment of a Central Bank but again they did not manage to make concrete results in this regard. At a five-hour-long session in Sarajevo, the Presidency decided to call the Central Bank managing board to its next session and to try to solve the problem through talks with the managing board. Today's session also revolved around a recent agreement on special ties, signed by representatives of the Bosnian Serb entity (Republic of Srpska) and the Federal Republic of Yugoslavia. In connection with the issue, Bosnian Foreign Ministry was asked to submit to Presidency members copies of international agreements ratified by Bosnia-Herzegovina since 1992. The Presidency also discussed an American initiative for southeast Europe and supported a proposal that cooperation within the initiative should be continued. They will later consider a decision to enter the initiative. (hina) mš 102158 MET mar 97
