ZAGREB, March 30 (Hina) - Today's VECERNJI LIST carries a comment
piece by Mirko Galic dealing with the new UNPROFOR mandate, which
is expected to be approved today by the Security Council.
According to Galic, the UN Secretary-General's attitude to
Croatia raises several major points:
"Who does the UN recognise as the legitimate authority in
Croatia - Tudjman or Martic (Krajina's 'sheriff')?
"With whom did UN negotiate the deployment of observers along
the Serbian-Bosnian border - with Milosevic or with Rugova (leader
of ethnic Albanians in Kosovo)?," Galic says.
He contrasted UN attitudes to the Serb minority in Krajina and
the Albanian minority in Serbia.
"The only difference between Kosovo and Krajina is that Serbia
is using force to oppress the Albanian minority in Kosovo - while
in Croatia, a Serb minority is blackmailing the whole nation.
"If the international community insists on every agreement
being first ratified by Knin leaders and their Belgrade bosses, it
will buttress Croatian radicals and as good as push Croatia to go
to war.
"If Martic is given the right to prevent the Croatian state
from controlling its own borders for the next hundred years, what
other option does Croatia have? Or does somebody want it to go to
war?
"It would be offensive and humiliating for Croatia if Boutros-
Ghali managed to impose his view of the new mandate, which fails to
provide for the control of Croatia's international borders and to
name Croatia as the mandate's destination.
"But neither would the United States emerge from this
diplomatic melee without a serious loss of face," Galic concludes.
