ASSISTANCE - $ SCHLEE SARAJEVO, Aug 8 (Hina) - The German government's commissioner for the return of refugees and the reconstruction of Bosnia and Herzegovina, Dietmar von Schlee, on Friday told reporters in Sarajevo the international community, Bonn included, was willing to assist the return of refugees through economic measures, but, he stressed, this assistance would be denied to those places which obstructed the process. After a visit to central Bosnia, Schlee strongly condemned the latest incidents in Jajce, pointing out that after demanding so of Central Bosnia Canton officials, he got clear assurances that violence against refugees would not be repeated. Places which incited violence could not count on our assistance, said Schlee, adding he expected a return would be guaranteed to persons who recently fled their homes around Jajce by 17 August. An undisturbed return was also expected to all other places, including Travnik, he added. Schlee, formerly a minister of the interior, also announced the German government and Germans in the Stabilization Force in BH would provide a more substantial assistance to infrastructure- building in Jajce, especially the water-supply system. In order to achieve better coordination of activities concerning the return of refugees and the reconstruction of BH, Schlee announced special headquarters, to closely cooperate with the governments of BH and Germany, would be established in Sarajevo and Bonn.
