He added that December 10 "is in no way a D Day". "The Serbian government will continue its activities to locate and arrest [the Hague fugitives] after December 10 in order to close the Hague chapter, and in order to sign the SAA with the EU by the end of January," Ljajic said. According to him, no one can deny that Serbia has the political will to arrest the Hague indictees.

Ljajic said that War Crimes Prosecutor Vladimir Vukcevic was making assumptions when he stated that Ratko Mladic and some other fugitives may be in hiding in Serbia. Rasim Ljajic (FoNet)
