ILOK, Dec 1 (Hina) - The Transitional Police Force in eastern
Croatia on Monday began wearing Croatian uniforms. It was an
"important step in the peaceful reintegration process", Croatian
assistant interior minister Josko Moric assessed.
"I can say with satisfaction that there have been no problems and
difficulties," Moric told reporters in Ilok. "On the contrary, the
population seems to be impressed by the fact that, as of today,
Croatian police uniforms can be seen in the Danube river region."
It was encouraging that policemen wearing Croatian uniforms for the
first time today were encountering no problems in their work, Moric
said.
Nine Serb members of the TPF refused to exchange their former
uniforms with the new, Croatian ones. According to Moric, these
were people who had earlier on decided to leave Croatia and whose
families had been living in Yugoslavia for months.
The figure of nine people could not endanger the peaceful
reintegration process, Moric said, adding he would soon learn if
other Serb policemen, those working other shifts, on sick or annual
leave, would accept Croatian police uniforms.
Commenting on the situation in eastern Croatia, the assistant
interior minister said it had stabilized and calmed down after some
explosions around 18 November. It was peaceful and stable now, he
said.
A group of criminals had left the Danube river region and Croatia,
three people suspected of recent explosions had been arrested and
there was no reason for dissatisfaction, Moric said.
