ZAGREB, March 12 (Hina) - Deputy head of the Croatian Government
Office for Displaced Persons and Refugees, Damir Zoric, today
talked with representatives of international humanitarian
organisations in Croatia in charge of the return of Bosnian
refugees. #L#
Croatia intended to return all 184 000 Bosnian refugees to
their homes by the end of this year, Zoric said. Those who could
not return to their homes, especially to the areas under Bosnian
Serb control, would remain in Croatia, Zoric added.
He spoke about difficulties of the countries which had
accepted a large number of refugees, such as Croatia and Germany.
There were some difficulties in the return of Croat refugees
to the Muslim-controlled town of Bugojno in central Bosnia, Zoric
said.
He also informed the humanitarian workers that some 4,000
Velika Kladusa refuges had returned home from the makeshift refugee
camp in Kupljensko (some 70 km south of Zagreb). There were some
7,000 refugees left in the camp currently, Zoric said.
