1. “We should not forget that the Tribunals continue to operate in societies that still struggle to overcome the legacies of the past and are still trying to heal from within. For instance, in Bosnia and Herzegovina only last week another mass grave was unearthed in the vicinity of Srebrenica, containing the remains of close to 1,000 victims who were killed under the command of General Ratko Mladic 13 years ago. An early advocate of the establishment of the ad hoc Tribunals, Croatia cannot emphasize strongly enough the vital importance of the judicial process in individualizing criminal responsibility for the crimes committed in both the former Yugoslavia and Rwanda.”

2. “We understand that the Tribunals are expected to fulfil their mandates as early as possible without compromising their standards or the integrity of the judicial process. We also understand that the failure to locate and arrest the remaining fugitives constitutes a major obstacle to that goal. The arrests this year of the fugitives Radovan Karadzic and Stojan Zupljanin, while long overdue, mark an important benchmark in completing the ICTY's mandate. We hope to see an early beginning of their trials. We are pleased to hear that the arrest and trials of the remaining fugitives, Ratko Mladic' and Goran Hadzic, who have been indicted for some of the most atrocious crimes committed in post-Second World War Europe - namely the massacres committed in Srebrenica and Vukovar - remain a priority for the ICTY.”

I thank them for their respective reports and would like to make a few remarks, primarily regarding the ICTY, given the importance my country attaches to its work.

All three groups, all three peoples must feel that it is their country, and they should feel safe and protected throughout its entire territory. Their fundamental rights and freedoms, as well as their civic and ethnic rights, should be protected throughout the country, as should their right to return to their homes. An important part of this is the fight against impunity with regard to all crimes committed. We echo the High Representative's calls regarding the need to arrest the fugitives from the International Criminal Tribunal for the Former Yugoslavia. They should be transferred to The Hague as soon as possible. Finally, we are offering the peoples of Bosnia and Herzegovina a clear and unambiguous European perspective.”

That is vital not only for the future and the survival of Bosnia and Herzegovina, but for the future survival of the Croats as well in Bosnia and Herzegovina. Those two futures are closely interlinked. We have said several times that there cannot be a Bosnia and Herzegovina without Croats in the country. It is therefore imperative to protect their equality. Having in mind their particular situation, I will underscore again that their voice must be heard and must be taken into account on a basis of equality - both ethnic and civic - and on the basis of constitutional equality.”

Bosnia and Herzegovina is facing some difficult problems, and the only way out is to reach an agreement and a vision for the future that is acceptable to all three of its constituent peoples. In this sense, challenging the very foundations of Bosnia and Herzegovina, which reached peace with the Dayton Accords, is hurtful and damaging. However, any intention to improve the current situation and remedy the problems in Bosnia and Herzegovina should be welcomed and encouraged.”

Thus, while we welcome with enthusiasm the EU-inspired reforms in Bosnia and Herzegovina and its progress on its path towards integration into the EU, we also draw attention to a number of fundamental problems that still need to be addressed.”

However, due to many other troubled spots around the world that have caught the attention of the international community and media, the situation in Bosnia and Herzegovina has fallen below our radar. In that sense, we are of the view that the international community should refocus its attention on the current situation in Bosnia and Herzegovina. We are deeply concerned by the High Representative's assessment of the situation in Bosnia and Herzegovina, which is far from stable.”
