BOSNIA TO CONTINUE ITS PARTICIPATION IN PEACEKEEPING MISSIONS IN 2008

SARAJEVO, Bosnia (January 3,2008) - "Bosnia intends to continue its participation in peacekeeping missions this year. We will send a unit to Iraq, our observers will go to Congo and Eritrea," the Bosnian Defence Minister Selmo Cikotić told Bosnian daily Dnevni Avaz.

"We will also open new military missions in Ankara, Belgrade, Zagreb, and with the NATO headquarters," he said.

"It is also possible that will send a number of officers to NATO-led missions, most likely in Afghanistan," Cikotić said.

Asked whether any number of Bosnian soldiers, other than officers, would also go, the minister said it was up to the Bosnian authorities to decide.

"Potentially, such a possibility exists, but the Bosnian Presidency must make that decision," the Bosnian Defence Minister Selmo Cikotić concluded.
