EUHR Solana supports detention of Karadzic

Summary: July 7, 2005: Javier SOLANA, EU High Representative for the CFSP, supports the detention of Aleksandar Karadzic (Brussels)

Javier SOLANA, European Union High Representative for the Common Foreign and Security Policy (CFSP), expressed today his full support for the detention of the suspected Indicted for War Crimes (PIFWC) supporter Aleksandar "Sasa" Karadzic who is one of the persons on a list of individuals subjected to an EU visa ban.

"I fully support the action taken this morning by forces of the multinational security presence in Bosnia and Herzegovina detaining the suspected Person Indicted for War Crimes (PIFWC) supporter Aleksandar "Sasa" Karadzic.

All those indicted by the International Criminal Tribunal for the former Yugoslavia have to be in the Hague in front of the tribunal where they will stand a fair trial.

In Bosnia and Herzegovina as well as in all the Balkans region there can be no reconciliation without justice."
