Mediators push Bosnian government to accept plan
The Associated Press
SARAJEVO, Bosnia-Herzegovina — Mediators began a diplomatic blitz yesterday in hopes of persuading the Bosnian government to accept a peace plan that could include a federation between Bosnia's rebel Serbs and Yugoslavia.
U. S., Russian, British, French and German mediators from the so-called contact group met with the Muslim-led government in hopes of salvaging a negotiated end to the war — not an outright military victory for the Serbs.
Ganic that there were no changes to a peace plan rejected by Bosnian Serbs this summer.
U. N. Secretary-General Boutros Boutros-Ghali was expected in Sarajevo today to discuss a possible cease-fire and an end to harassment of the 24,000 peacekeepers, 400 of whom are detained by Bosnian Serbs as insurance against NATO air strikes.
Fighting around Bhac, a town that is protected by the United Nations, picked up yesterday. Mayor Hamdja Kabilagic said shells were landing every six seconds in the afternoon. U.N. spokesman Maj. Herve Gournelon reported heavy machine-gun, shelling and small-arms fire.
Charles Thomas, the U.S. representative to the contact group, said after meeting Bosnian Vice President Ejup
Thomas said the contact group would "stick with the plan," which called for Serbs to reduce their holdings from 70 to 75 percent of Bosnia to 49 percent. A Muslim-Croat federation, which has accepted the plan, would get 51 percent.
But U.N. representatives and senior officials of NATO countries acknowledged they have almost no leverage on the Serbs since admitting that NATO air strikes, the ultimate weapon in their arsenal, was insufficient to stop a Serb assault on the northwest Bihac pocket.
William Perry, U.S. defense secretary, suggested Sunday that the Serbs had won the 31-month war.
"If the secretary of defense of the most powerful country in the world is making these remarks, then the leverage that the U.N. has as a peacekeeping operation ... is limited," said U.N. representative Michael Williams in Zagreb, Croatia.
That leaves negotiators looking to the Bosnian government for concessions.
Perry and British Foreign Secretary Douglas Hurd said one possibility was to allow the Bosnian Serbs some

sort of political ties with Serb-dominated Yugoslavia, which they long had sought and that the United States had opposed.
Such ties, Hurd told reporters in Brussels, were "a matter that is reasonable to consider."
Depending on what links were offered, such a move could provide the Serbs an opportunity to unite in a
Greater Serbia. The nationalist dream toore apart the old Yugoslavia and helped start the war that has left 200,000 people dead or missing since April 1992.
But Sen. Robert Dole, the incoming Senate majority leader, reacted coolly to U.S. efforts to draw Bosnian Serbs into talks by offering to reopen a peace plan they've rejected.
Arafat appeals to donors; aid not likely to be received The Associated Press
BRUSSELS, Belgium — Although poverty appears to be fueling violence in the Gaza Strip, the World Bank's top Middle East official told Yasser Arafat yesterday that only a third of the international aid pledged to Palestinians was likely to reach them this year.
Of the $700 million promised by international donors for 1994, only about $240 million is likely to be delivered on schedule, said World Bank Vice President Cato Koch-Weseer.
Arafat was attending a two-day conference in Brussels to appeal to donors to make good on aid pledges so he can relieve the economic hardship that is threatening his six-month-old administration.
Battle for independence from Russia worsens
The Associated Press
GROZNY, Russia — Fighter jets attacked the airport of the Chechen capital yesterday, hours after Russian President Boris Yeltsin threatened to crack down on the breakaway region if the fighting didn't stop.
It was the first time jets have been used in the escalating conflict in the Caucasus Mountains region, which declared independence from Moscow in 1991.
Russia has openly backed the opposition of elected Chechen President Dahokhur Dudaye but denies providing any military help. It says mercenaries are involved on both sides.
"Here you see the situation with your own eyes," he told reporters minutes after the jets
But Dudayev said the jet attack was the latest sign that Russia was arming and leading the opposition forces.
Chechen (CHETCH-en) officials claim to have shot down a Russian-made MIG fighter, one of four MiGs and four Su-27 that they said attacked the airport six miles north of the Chechen capital, Grozny. They also claimed to have shot down two helicopters.
All Khalisiev, head of airport security, said there were no casualties.
The latest opposition offensive began last week with helicopter attacks on Grozny's outskirts. Dudayev's forces repulsed the attacks Saturday in heavy fighting at his presidential palace.
