SERBIAN NATIONAL PARTY'S PRESS CONFERENCE

ZAGREB, Sep 15 (Hina) - The Serbian National Party (SNS) believed that Croatia was "closer than ever to reintegrating the occupied areas into its constitutional and legal system". The SNS said it was up to the Croatian President, Franjo Tudjman, to take the next step. He should reverse parts of the interior policy, particularly sections regarding the protection of human rights and freedom, SNS leader, Milan Dukic, told today's press conference. Dukic said the President and Croatian authorities should: ensure full functioning of the legal state; suspend all evictions executed because of administrative decisions and not based on court decisions; stop 'national discrimination' and establish a court for human rights. The SNS welcomed the Pope's visit to Croatia last weekend and supported his pleas for peace. (hina) mm ks sd 151651 MET sep 94
