TUDJMAN AND IZETBEGOVIC ON HERZEG-BOSNIA

SARAJEVO, June 14 (Hina) - "The Croatian Republic of Herzeg-Bosnia still exists, because it is a community that emerged from the resistance to the Serbian aggression. It will exist until all the functions of the Federation of Bosnia-Herzegovina have been established," Croatian President Tudjman told a press conference after the talks with President Izetbegovic on Tuesday. The two presidents discussed bilateral relations, defence from the aggressor and the establishment of the federation in Bosnia- Herzegovina and its link in a confederation with Croatia. President Tudjman said Herzeg-Bosnia should not "just die out" but should be completely integrated into the Federation. President of the Presidency of Bosnia-Herzegovina Alija Izetbegovic said that all answers about Herzeg-Bosnia were contained in the agreement on interim arrangements until the establishment of the Federation of Bosnia-Herzegovina. "These arrangements say quite clearly that all the existing government institutions in Bosnia-Herzegovina will remain until the Federation of Bosnia-Herzegovina has been fully established," Izetbegovic said. 141818 MET jun 94
