Sarajevo,  July  2,  1996 (Press TWRA) - �Biljana  Plavsic  stated
Karadzic  is still President of the Serb entity as well  as  newly
appointed to the leading position of SDS. We consider this also as
a public engagement which can not be performed by somebody charged
for  war-crimes�,  M.  Steiner , PIC  deputy  high  representative
stated,  while making comment on the recent retirement of  Bosnian
Serb  leaders, R. Karadzic, adding he is still at the head of  the
board charged for the nomination of party (SDS) candidates on  the
forthcoming  elections. �We can not wait for  the  elections  with
such  a  �status  quo�,  so  the  international  community  should
undertake   necessary  measures  in  accordance  with  the   given
statements  for  it  is  the  only  kind  of  communication   Pale
understands�,  Steiner pointed out, adding  that  raising  of  the
sanctions is just one among the many other possible measures.�
      Washington  - U. S. administration estimated as insufficient
Karadzic�s   statement  on  the  transfer  of   the   authorities.

completely  from the leading position and extradite him  to  ICTY.
�We   remain  decisive  in  requesting  four  things  to  happen�,
spokesman  Burns  pointed out: Karadzic must be removed  from  the
leading  position, he must be deprived of any political  influence
and  remain  outside the BH borders and extradited  to  the  Hague
Court�,  Burns said, adding that renewal of the sanctions  against
Serbia  and  Bosnian  Serbs remains possible in  every  moment  if
international community decides it is the best way to act.

September  14. SDS leadership requested from Karadzic  to  present
