Serbia can and must do more to capture Ratko Mladic and Goran Hadzic, Chief Hague Prosecutor Serge Brammertz said ahead of his trip to Belgrade. Speaking for B92, Brammetz stated that his talks with Serbia's official will focus on the latest activities in the search for the Hague war crimes indictees. Hague prosecutor dissatisfied with cooperation He also asserted that the EU should continue using conditioning as a means of pressure in order for Serbia to cooperate. Brammertz said that, at this point, he was not satisfied with Serbia's cooperation with his office, and added that he would decide whether that remark would make it to his regular report - to be submitted to the UN Security Council - after he had met with the country's officials and heard about the progress made in their search for Mladic and Hadzic. "I will consider all concrete activities undertaken, I will listen to find out what concrete efforts are being made. If I am satisfied with all the activities undertaken in that direction I will put that in my report. At this point I am not satisfied," said he. Brammertz added that Serbia could do much more in its cooperation with the Hague prosecution. Asked about his reaction to hearing that Serbia's EU membership depended on his reports, the prosecutor said this was "the wrong way to look at things". "The right way is to say that Serbia must arrest the remaining fugitives in order to define for itself a future through European integrations. I write only about the quality of cooperation between Serbia and my office. It is not my job to make political decisions," said Brammertz. Serge Brammertz (file)
