'BLUE ROAD' ACROSS MT IGMAN TO SARAJEVO TO BE REOPENED, UN SAYS

SARAJEVO, Feb 1 (Hina) - Despite no agreement between Bosnian Government's officials and Bosnian Serbs on reopening the 'blue roads' to Sarajevo, UN Protection Force officials said the road across Mount Igman and Sarajevo Airport would be open to traffic Wednesday. The newly-appointed chief of UNPROFOR civilian affairs in Sarajevo, Enrique Aguilar, said today that the road which links the Sarajevo suburb Dobrinja to Butmir would be reopened from 01:00 p.m. Wednesday to convoys of six UN humanitarian agencies, the International Red Cross and the Office of UN special envoy for Sarajevo, William Eagleton. Uglier described yesterday's talks between Bosnian Government officials and self-styled Serb authorities as a flop but he said he still believed that some progress had been made. The talks were to continue. Aguilar confirmed that Serbs had insisted on half of all contents in cargoes transported by humanitarian convoys 'in exchange' for them clearing free traffic along the blue routes. As long as there was no agreement on the free movement of convoys organized by non-governmental relief agencies, civilians were unlikely to be allowed to travel into or out of Sarajevo.
