The Bosnian presidency Muslim member in Washington Friday accused the EU of "appeasement" toward Serbia. Haris Silajdzic, one of three members of the Bosnian presidency, denounced the European Union for signing a preliminary membership agreement, the SAA, with Serbia based on its cooperation in the search for Serb war criminals. Silajdzic criticizes EU for closer ties with Serbia Silajdzic said the signing on Wednesday ignored that Prime Minister Vojislav Kostunica's government had "reneged on countless promises to surrender for trial the two most-wanted war crimes suspects from the civil war that wrecked Bosnia and Herzegovina during the early 1990s." Bosnian Serb political leader Radovan Karadzic and his military chief Ratko Mladic "were not arrested but Serbia got the green light" to sign the document. "At the same time, they said that Bosnia has not done enough. Bosnia has not done enough because of the (Bosnian) Serbs and Serbia." At a news conference, Silajdzic said Kostunica is "behind the Bosnian Serbs' separation ideas." "Someone is fomenting that trouble," he said, and trouble in Bosnia is in Kostunica's interest, a Bosnian crisis with the potential to become a regional crisis. "I don't think that will happen, but obviously that's (what) the pronouncements from Belgrade suggest," he said. "Appeasement of the radicals in Belgrade never brought change," Silajdzic commented on the EU decision to allow for the initialing of the SAA.
