OSIJEK, July 26 (Hina) - The Osijek-Klisa-Vukovar road was opened
on Friday in the presence of UN transitional administrator
Jacques Klein, the head of the Croatian government office for the
occupied areas, Ivica Vrkic, and local Serb leader Goran Hadzic.
At a ribbon-cutting ceremony, Vrkic said that all citizens in
the UN-administrated areas possessing Croatian identity cards
could move freely throughout Croatia. "Those who are willing to
take Croatian registration plates and who have ID cards can use
this road," he added.
Vrkic described the event as very important, saying that it
marked "the beginning of free movement of all citizens" and that
it was "yet another sign of Croatia's good will."
Vrkic said that he would demand that UNTAES ensure freedom of
movement for Croatian citizens visiting the UN-administrated
area.
Hadzic cut the ribbon on the other side of the road.
Klein expressed satisfaction with the opening of the road,
describing it as another step forward. He congratulated both
sides on cooperation and praised mine-disposal teams and
engineers who cleared the rubble.
