Kosor and ethnic Serbs discuss issues of missing people, refugee return

Autor: mses
VUKOVAR, Nov 4 (Hina) - After her talks in Vukovar on Thursday with representatives of the Serb minority in Croatia and with Serb families whose dearest ones went missing during the war in the 1990s, Croatian Prime Minister Jadranka Kosor said at a news conference that the government was doing its best to locate the remains of Serbs gone missing after Operations "Flash" and "Storm" in 1995 and ensure their dignified burial.

The list of those who have not been unaccounted for since the two liberation operations of the Croatian forces contains the names of 835 people, according to Kosor.

The Croatian PM said today's talks also focused on refugee returns and plans to hold a fund-raising conference soon.

"I have said that everybody has the right to return to their own home and that the return must be voluntary. As far as Croatia is concerned, we have made huge efforts and have allocated more than EUR 5 billon for housing and reconstruction," the premier said.

Kosor welcomed the statement of "apology and sympathy" which Serbian President Boris Tadic gave at Ovcara earlier in the day.

As a member of NATO and a future member of the European Union, Croatia supports its neighbours, she said.

In attendance at the talks with Serb minority representatives were the Serb National Council' head, Milorad Pupovac, Independent Democratic Serb Party leader Vojislav Stanimirovic, as well as Croatian President Ivo Josipovic and the visiting Serbian President Tadic.
