ZAGREB, Dec 3 (Hina) - Local Croatian authorities, Serb authorities from Sector North and UNPROFOR officials met on Thursday at an UNPROFOR check-point near Sisak, 50 km south-east of Zagreb. The minutes of the meeting, accepted by both sides, were delivered to media by the Croatian Army command in Zagreb on Friday. The Croatian and Serb sides agreed to study a proposal by UNPROFOR officials in Sector North for the demilitarization of the disengagement line area near Sisak, so they could put forward their proposals at the next meeting. It was also agreed that a meeting would be held with local military commanders of both sides in the Sunja area, which would be chaired by UNPROFOR's Danish Battalion commander in Sector North.
