CSCE BUDAPEST CONFERENCE TO RESUME THIS AFTERNOON

ZAGREB, Dec 30 (Hina) - The emergency CSCE (Conference on Security and Cooperation in Europe) session devoted to the Bihac situation broke up again yesterday evening and was said to resume this afternoon. Croatian and Bosnian representatives were expected to hold a news conference after the session, according to Croatian radio. Croatian and Bosnian delegations discussed the "modalities of realisation" of their demands with Contact Group representatives on Tuesday and Wednesday, Croatian CSCE ambassador Darko Bekic said last night. These demands included the sending of a CSCE envoy to the Bihac region to prepare a report that should serve as grounds for the ministerial meeting's declaration for the CSCE summit to be held on December 5. Croatia and Bosnia also proposed that their foreign ministers Granic and Ljubijankic meet their counterparts from the Contact Group member states. Another demand was that a CSCE commission be dispatched to the Bihac region to investigate the human rights situation and the position of the civilian population. "These ideas were received with understanding and interest by Contact Group members, but there were many technical and procedural obstacles to their realisation," Bekic said. He did not specify what these obstacles were. "The Croatian and Bosnian delegations are trying to overcome these obstacles," he said. (hina) as 011149 MET dec 94
