A BRIEF LOOK AT CROATIAN PRESS ON MONDAY

ZAGREB, May 16 (Hina) - Today's Zagreb daily Vjesnik carries on the front page a report on President Tudjman's meeting with a delegation from the town of Daruvar. The talks focused on the situation in the Daruvar area in connection with a crime committed on 12 May, when four uniformed persons had killed five and wounded two inhabitants of the village of Vukovje. Vjesnik brings an article on the continuation of a protest rally of inhabitants of Moscenica due to the failure of Serb paramilitary formations from UNPA North to pull out of a zone which should have been demilitarized in accordance of the Zagreb cease- fire agreement signed 29 March. The protest rally is the subject- matter of an article in Vjesnik, titled "Double Standard of UNPROFOR". The author, Aleksandar Milosevic, reminds readers of the fact that "according to the Vance Plan, which the United Nations has never rescinded, in the so-called protection areas, in fact in the occupied areas of Croatia, it is not permitted to hoist any flag and other insignia..." However, the Serbs have virtually formed their state in the occupied areas, set up their signs and flags, and have almost completely cleansed UNPAs ethnically, whereas UNPROFOR has not reacted to this, says Milosevic's commentary in Vjesnik. In an article under the title of "Failed Exam at Bosnian Crisis" the correspondent of the Vjesnik from Paris, Mirko Galic, writes: "Different views between the international factors were again disclosed at the recent ministerial session in Geneva. A striking difference was visible between European and American approach to solving the war in Bosnia-Herzegovina." The Geneva session has shown that French-British-Russian "realism" and policy of expediency are objectively on the benefit of the Serb side, whereas, on the other hand, the U.S.A. has been gaining more significance in endeavours to find a solution to the B-H crisis, since it advocates the just peace and not any kind of cessation of hostilities. "Geneva and new 'Genevas' will bring no fruit as long as all powerful countries have not agreed which values, and not interests, they are defending in the former Yugoslavia." Another Zagreb daily Vecernji List has the headline "Serb Fear of Federation" on the front page, assessing how the Vienna agreement might reflect on continuation of negotiation on Bosnia- Herzegovina. After the Vienna agreements forthcoming negotiations will be led for the first time by the two sides: the Federation and Serbs. Establishing the Federation the Croats and the Moslems have proved that the whole of Bosnia-Herzegovina can be set up as a joint state of the three peoples, while the Serbs remain what they have been: destroyers of the internationally recognized country, emphasizes the author of the article, Visnja Staresina. 161318 MET may 94
