SFOR troops in Bosnia fought a gun battle with the war crimes suspects
Text of report by the German news agency ddpADN on 18th December
Bonn: Foreign Minister Klaus Kinkel has welcomed the arrest of two suspected war criminals by international Sfor [NATO-led Stabilization Force] troops in Bosnia.
This shows the international community's determination to speed up the implementation of the Dayton peace agreement in all its aspects, Kinkel said in Bonn today.
With every arrest, the air gets "thinner" for those war criminals still at large.
Kinkel also urged all those charged by the Hague tribunal to turn themselves in. The latest arrests in central Bosnia have shown that war criminals will not escape their just punishment, said Kinkel.
