GANIC SAYS BOSNIAN ARMY WILL HELP ITS TROOPS IN BIHAC POCKET

SARAJEVO, Feb 27 (Hina) - The Vice President of the Bosnian Federation, Ejup Ganic, addressed today's session of the Bosnia- Herzegovina Assembly on peaceful negotiations in Bosnia- Herzegovina. Ganic stressed that Bosnia-Herzegovina consistently respected all obligations from the cessation on hostilities agreement signed on 31 December 1994. He said that Serbs continued to attack the Bihac area, obstruct the traffic on 'blue routes' and talks on prisoner-of-war exchanges, and continued their ethnic cleansing campaing, all in violation of the ceasefire agreement. Ganic warned that the Bosnian Army would take steps to help its 5th Corps in the northwestern Bihac pocket unless Serbs stopped their attacks. Bosnian Prime Minister Haris Silajdzic said that the Bosnian economy was operating at 6,5 percent of its pre-war capacity. He added that it was important that production resumed in all factories, mines and power plants where circumstances permitted. Silajdzic said that production now depended on the functioning of the Moslem-Croat Federation and the free movement of goods and people on its territory. (Hina) mar rv vm 271804 MET feb 95
