The Hague Tribunal insists that Carl Bildt meet with Radovan Karadzic’s legal team regarding the rumors that an immunity deal was struck with Richard Holbrooke. The former Bosnian Serb political leader claims that Bildt, the serving Swedish foreign minister, brokered the immunity deal with the then U.S. envoy to the region. Hague wants “Karadzic deal” cleared up Even though Swedish Ambassador to Holland Hans Magnusson has already told the Tribunal that Bildt does not know of any such agreement and that a meeting with Karadzic would be of no “significant” use to the defense, Judge Iain Bonomy has told Magnusson that he wants the minister to meet with Karadzic’s legal team just the same. Bonomy added that “he will order him to do so if he does not go to the meeting voluntarily,” according to the Reuters news agency. The judge has asked the Swedish ambassador to Holland to give him an answer by the end of the week. The Swedish Justice Ministry has already informed the Hague Tribunal that Bildt does not have any useful information that could help confirm the existence of the supposed Karadzic-Holbrooke agreement.
