Nevesinje, Ljubinje and Bileca are towns in eastern
Herzegovina under the Bosnian Serb army control.
Officers of the Croatian Defence Council (HVO), Bosnian army
and Bosnian Serb army today held two-hour-long talks behind closed
doors which were chaired by the new commander of the Spanish IFOR
brigade, General Luis Palacios Zuasti.
According to spokesman Alvarez, the military officers reported
during the talks that all obstacles and mines had been removed from
those roads. It was agreed that the process of mine-sweeping and
the withdrawal of all troops from a 120-km-long conflict line for
which the Spanish brigade was responsible, should start
immediately.
Alvarez said that all three sides in Sector South-East showed
'excellent cooperation'.
