COMPOSITION OF BOSNIAN GOVERNMENT WORKED OUT, SAYS BUKVIC

ZAGREB, May 4 (Hina) - The composition of the Government has fully been worked out during talks on the arrangement of the Federation of Bosnia-Herzegovina, Bosnian Deputy Prime Minister Edib Bukvic said in an interview with Croatian television late Tuesday night speaking of the implementation of the Washington agreement. "One of the key issues is the cantonal delimitation. This and appointment of state officials will be left for the end of talks," Bukvic said, adding that principles according to which cantons would be organized were still at issue. "Although it was agreed in Vienna that cantons could not be organized according to a national principle, but that both the majority and minority nations in each of the cantons should be guaranteed equal rights, there were still attempts to organize the cantonts according to the national principle," Bukvic stressed. The Bosnian deputy prime minister expressed hope that the Croatian and Bosnian foreign ministers would continue talks at the US embassy in Vienna later this week. Asked about the return of refugees, Bukvic said some were already returning to their homes. "For instance, Croats are returning to Vares from Fojnica in quite large numbers, although no agreement about it has been reached," Bukvic said and added he thought about a thousand of them had returned. 041445 MET may 94
