Bosnia - Future of Brcko

(11 Mar 1998) T/I: 11:21:54
The final decision on the fate of the northeastern Bosnian town of Brcko will be decided later this week and its future is far from certain.
The town holds both military and political significance because of its strategic place in the Dayton Peace Accord. Many political commentators believe if the international arbiter for Brcko, Robert Owens makes the wrong decision it could lead to another politically divided city in Europe like Jerusalem.
Both the Republika Srpska and the Bosnian Federation claim a stake in the town and it will require some diplomacy to resolve the dispute.
The decision to determine the status of the town could directly
affect the future of the entire country and fully test the idea
of reintegration.

VOXPOP "I think that the rightful thing is for Brcko to stay as it is right now. They can be our companions, friends in some business ways, and this means that Brcko has to stay as part of Serbia. It needs to remain part of a Serb state so another war cannot happen - and it probably won't. I'd like to tell you it could not pass like this if we should be joined again. I think that the people were insulted and they suffered a lot on both sides";
VOXPOP "We know that Brcko has to be Serb land and there is no other story. And if it will not accrue to the Serbs any different kind of decision will result with the Serb people taking guns again";
VOXPOP "There is nothing to think about it. Brcko will stay in the Serb republic. It will stay, there is no other solution and it can't be something else";

Najveca greska je sto grad nije pripao ni jednoj od strana. Ne bitno kojoj strani jer ovo stanje je katastrofa iz razloga sto je dobro samo guzonjama koji su u foteljama.
