He dismissed media speculation that SFOR's French flight controllers
were sent back to their homeland in an attempt to prevent their being
interrogated about the circumstances of the accident near the southern
Bosnian town of Stolac.
The flight controllers have been interviewed and they are available to
an investigating team, Sullivan said. The investigation into the plane
crash is being conducted by the Prosecutor's Office of
Bosnia-Herzegovina in cooperation with the authorities in Skopje.
The Office of the Bosnia-Herzegovina Presidency confirmed that the
bodies of president Trajkovski and his associates would be transferred
from Sarajevo to Skopje on Wednesday morning. The late Macedonian
president will be buried in Skopje on Friday.
