ZAGREB, Aug 29 (Hina) - Croatia supports the concept of a total
ban on anti-personnel mines which about 100 countries are to
discuss at a diplomatic conference in Oslo between 1 and 19
September, Croatia's Science and Technology Minister Ivica
Kostovic told the head of ICRC's office in Zagreb, Isabelle
Butticatz, on Friday.
Croatia will attend the conference in Oslo with a three-
member delegation headed by the head of the Foreign Ministry's
Department for Peace and Security, Ranko Vilovic.
In April 1996, Croatia signed a moratorium on the
manufacture, use, transport and storing of anti-personnel mines.
Throughout 1996 and 1997, representatives of Croatia took
part in all five preliminary meetings of the "Ottawa process",
which should be rounded up with the signing of an agreement on a
total ban of anti-personnel mines in December.
