SNS HOLD THAT LETTER ON REINTEGRATION SHOULD BE ADJUSTED

ZAGREB, Jan 17 (Hina) - The Serb People's Party (SNS) holds that the Letter of Intent about the completion of the peaceful reintegration of eastern Slavonia, Baranja and Western Srijem should be adjusted, because "it offers less than the Erdut Agreement". #L# SNS President Milan Djukic told Friday's news conference about five requests which, as he put it, should be entwined into the adjustment of the document. "These are the permanent demilitarization of the UNTAES- administered area, a moratorium on military service of the Serb community for five or more years, with addition that the possibility of voluntary service is not excluded, the equalization of rights of refugees and displaced persons, whatever their nationality, that the Serb ethnic community be giver the right to a county within the Croatian territory, and that international community realistically judge on the justification of these requests," Djukic said. He said that a SNS delegation had recently visited eastern Slavonia where they had held several talks with UNTAES representatives, local authorities and common citizens. He stressed that the most important thing was that local Serb authorities had called the local Serb residents to apply for Croatian documents and to vote at elections because it was in their interest. "This move contributes to a cessation of fear and restores hope that a new exodus of Serbs from Croatia would be avoided," Djukic said. (hina) lm mm 171809 MET jan 97
