NEGOTIATIONS OVER SARAJEVO AIRPORT CANCELED

SARAJEVO, May 6 (Hina) - The negotiations between UN Protection Force and Bosnian Serbs on the Sarajevo airport have been canceled today. The Serb officials had announced that negotiations could resume next week, Sarajevo UN command said. UN spokesman Alexander Ivanko said the UN seat in New York had been already displeased over the blockade, and it would probably come to a Security Council agenda soon. UN officials recalled that the airport was given over to "blue helmets" primarily because of humanitarian aid delivery. The food warehouses in Sarajevo were still not empty, officials said, while some supplies have been brought in by a surface route. Repeatedly shooting at the UN-labelled cargo planes and thus exposing the UN command to threat, Bosnian Serbs managed to close up the airport a month ago. Serbs, who had given over the airport to UN in June 1992, said they would allow only UN military personnel to use the air-lift, while UNPROFOR has persisted on using it under previous terms.
