SARAJEVO, Sept 19 (Hina) - UNHCR was worried because of
announcements that the German government might soon deny residence
permits to a large number of refugees from Bosnia-Herzegovina
settled there, UNHCR spokesman Kris Janowski told reporters in
Sarajevo on Thursday.
"We have been informed that interior ministers of German
provinces may adopt such a decision today. We think it's too early
because the situation on the ground doesn't allow refugees to
return to their homes", Janowski said.
As an example he cited the fact that even on election day, 14
September, few people had decided to cross the entity boundary,
despite high security measures. UNHCR thought that refugees should
not return before the holding of municipal elections, also to be
organized by the OSCE Mission, Janowski said.
OSCE spokesman Thomas Leary said that these elections were
planned to take place at the end of November. The final decision
might be announced early next week.
