"What we found in Srebrenica broadens the dimensions of the
Srebrenica tragedy," she said and added that during meetings with
local Serb officials she had got impression that some of missing
people (Moslems) were still being alive, although they were not in
the Srebrenica area.
She told the conference that Bosnian Serb leaders at Pale had
let her have full freedom of movement and work. She also voiced
satisfaction with the promise of the NATO-led Implementation Force
commander, Admiral Leighton Smith, that NATO soldiers would help
her whenever she needed the assistance.
Rehn said that her big concern remained to be the
reintegration of the Croatian Danubian area into the Republic of
Croatia, the position of refugees at Kupljensko, the rights of
minorities in Vojvodina, as well as the status of Kosovo. "I am
especially concerned about the situation in Kosovo," she said.
