Expressing his gratitude to Koschnick, western city Mayor Mijo
Brajkovic said that the EU administration was in a "delicate
position" since it had to respect the interests of both, Croat and
Bosniac side.
"We have many difficulties these days," Brajkovic said ahead
of the new round of talks on the city setup to be staged later in
the day.
"We shall do everything to end this agony up," he stressed,
warning that it would be tragedy "if this people should leave this
area."
