Croatia approves legislation ensuring Serb minority rights
The Associated Press
ZAGREB, Yugoslavia — Croatia, hopeful of international recognition, adopted key legislation yesterday about Serb minority rights. But fighting continued, and a U.N. envoy said obstacles remained to sending peacekeepers to the war-torn republic.
Meanwhile, Germany, a staunch supporter of Croatia and critic of its rival, Serbia, announced it was banning airplanes, ships and helicopters from its or ally, Montenegro, from its territory.
Government representative Dieter Vogel said he hoped other European Community countries would follow suit.
The adoption by Croatia's parliament of legislation anchoring the rights of the republic's 600,000 minority Serbs was aimed at assuring Serbs' fear of persecution and winning international recognition by proving the republic's commitment to democracy.
No country has yet recognized June 25 independence declarations by Croatia and Slovakia.
Slovenian President Milen Kucan said yesterday in Ljubljana, his republic's capital, that seven of the 12 European Community states could recognize his country, possibly by Dec. 17.
He did not name the countries or offer any
details. But any country recognizing Slovenia also would be likely to do the same with Croatia.
Parliament president Zarko Domljan had acknowledged Tuesday that the law had been sought by some European countries as a precondition for diplomatic recognition.
Croatian radio said the draft of the law was based on an agreement reached by the European Community and Yugoslav leaders in The Hague, the Netherlands.
The law, passed unanimously by Croatia's Parliament, foresees broad cultural autonomy for ethnic minorities, with local police, courts and government to be controlled by Serbs in areas where they form a majority.
But Parliament president Zarko Domjian said it would be implemented only after the war was over and free, multiparty elections were held in Serb-populated areas.
Serbia and ethnic Serbs in Croatia have said they feared that the minority will be persecuted by Croatian should the republic win independence. Tens of thousands of Serbs were killed by the wartime fascist regime ruling in Croatia. Retaliatory killings took place afterward.
Dominjan also acknowledged Tuesday that the law had been sought by some European countries as a precondition for diplomatic recognition.
