the cooperation of the Tribunal in disclosing monetary transactions of the former Yugoslav President Slobodan Milosevic and his people. "During today's meeting del Ponte did not present me with anything," Dinkic said, but added the National Bank expressed interest in such information because disclosing financial malversation of the former regime is in the country's interest.

BELGRADE, Jan 25 (Hina) - Yugoslav National Bank governor Mladjan
Dinkic said on Thursday the chief prosecutor of the International
Criminal Tribunal of the former Yugoslavia (ICTY), Carla del Ponte,
offered him the cooperation of the Tribunal in disclosing monetary
transactions of the former Yugoslav President Slobodan Milosevic
and his people.
"During today's meeting del Ponte did not present me with
anything," Dinkic said, but added the National Bank expressed
interest in such information because disclosing financial
malversation of the former regime is in the country's interest.
Dinkic told a news conference Carla del Ponte promised assistance
from the Swiss government in obtaining information about frozen
hidden accounts of Milosevic's people and on Belgrade's Investbank
account in Switzerland.
Dinkic criticised countries like Switzerland, Greece and Cyprus
for refusing to give Yugoslavia information about frozen secret
accounts of former officials. He added should this practice
continue, doubts in the cooperation of some western countries with
former president Slobodan Milosevic will increase.
