MEETING OF B-H CROATS TAKING PLACE IN SARAJEVO

SARAJEVO, Feb 6 (Hina) - Meeting of Bosnia and Herzegovina Croats is taking place today in Sarajevo. The meeting called by the organizers as the Parliament of B-H Croats was called by the Sarajevo Croatian Coordination Committee and prepared by the Organization Committee of the Parliament in which, apart from the mentioned Coordination, are representatives of the Parliament of the Bosnian Posavina and Central Bosnia, the Croatian cultural society Napredak, B-H branches of Matica Hrvatska, the homeland societies and the Catholic Church. As member of Organizational Committee Ivica Simic announced at yesterday's press conference, the purpose of the meeting is to "'give meaning' to the position of Croats in B-H in these present war conditions" and "foresee future political movements and determine methods for realization of these objectives". Member of Committee Anto Kovacevic said that the most important was to stop the clashes between Croats and Muslims, "the two victims of this war". He holds that in B-H "neither a Muslim state, nor Croat, or Serb state are possible, but an integral, decentralized B-H". The participants are to adopt a document today previously proposed as Declaration of Parliament of B-H Croats. 061508 MET feb 94
