GRANIC CONDEMNS LJUBIJANKIC'S MURDER

ZAGREB, May 29 (Hina) - We were witnesses to various precedents in this war for which there was no condemnation in human language and mind that had not already been voiced; the murder of Bosnian Foreign Minister Irfan Ljubijankic and the act of tying peace troops on the posts at Pale were just latest examples, Croatian Foreign Minister Mate Granic said in a statement. Croatia most severely condemned the murder of Minister Ljubijankic, especially in the light of the fact that it was Croatian rebel Serbs who admitted that it was them who committed the crime, Granic said and added that Croatia saw Ljubijankic's murder as an attack on the very idea of the Federation of Bosnia- Herzegovina and its Confederation with Croatia. Despite increasingly violent Serb attacks Croatia was determined to continue the implementation of the Washington Accord. It was particularly important in the present situation that the international community increase its pressure on Karadzic and other Bosnian Serb leaders and to cut the rest of their ties to the outside world, especially to Belgrade. If this was not done immediately and with great resolution, the international community would lose its credibilty and Bosnia- Herzegovina would disappear in the chaos with uncertain outcome, Granic said.
