CROAT, BOSNIAK REPS MEET IN JAJCE

JAJCE, Aug 5 (Hina) - Representatives of the Croat and Bosniak (Muslim) people on Tuesday held a meeting behind closed doors in Jajce, central BH. Also in attendance were representatives of the International Police Task Force, the Stabilization Force, UNHCR, and European monitors. The meeting focused on events which occurred in the Jajce municipality after 25 July, when a joint municipal direct transfer account was to be signed and Muslim representative Enver Sabic failed to appear at the scheduled meeting. According to a statement the president of the Jajce municipal council of the Croatian Democratic Union Party, Ivo Simunovic, issued after today' meeting, the mass return of Bosniaks to the Jajce area had been planned and organized and directed to areas where reconstruction had not taken place yet, even though Croats waited for it for two years. Simunovic said people were frustrated by the attitude of the international community and Bosniaks who obstructed every reconstruction project, thus wanting that reconstruction of Jajce be conditioned by their return. Today it was agreed that in the future the international community would not block reconstruction in the Jajce area nor allow the Muslim party to obstruct the implementation of agreed reconstruction projects, Simunovic said. Humanitarian aid would be equally distributed to the Croat and the Bosniak sides, Simunovic said, adding that international organizations were supporting the work out of a refugee-return plan.
