VUCIC: >FOREIGN CAPITAL INFLOW OF AROUND 100 MILLION GERMAN MARKS BELGRADE, May 3 >(Tanjug) - Even in the current circumstances of strict isolation, imposed on >our country by Western states, it is evident that joint investment projects >are picking up, said Borka Vucic, Yugoslav minister in charge of international >financial cooperation. In the first three months this year the inflow of >foreign capital was around 100 million German marks, Vucic said, noting that >foreign partners are also increasingly interested in concessions, as a form of >joint investment, and for the "board" system, or the model "build, produce and >deliver." "I think that in our strategy we should increasingly opt for that >model," minister Borka Vucic said.

In open and friendly talks, the Jordanian parliament >president assessed that the active participation of the Yugoslav parliamentary >delegation at the 103rd Conference of the Interparliamentary Union represents >an important contribution to the success of the international conference. >Bozovic informed in detail his host about Yugoslav positions on the situation >in Kosovo and Metohija and about developments in the world. In connection with >NATO's aggression on Yugoslavia and the pressures of Western centers of power >on our people in the past few years, Bozovic said that the pressures and >aggression on our country and people, which threatened their biological >survival, was without precedent in modern history. AGGRESSION ON YUGOSLAVIA >AIMED AT DESTROYING INTERNATIONAL RELATIONS AMMAN, May 3 (Tanjug) - Member of >the Yugoslav parliamentary delegation to the 103rd conference of the >Interparliamentary Union Ivica Dacic said on Tuesday that the "absence of all >scruples and the method how NATO's aggression on Yugoslavia was conducted >clearly indicate that its goal was to destroy the very foundations of the >system of international relations based on the U.N. Charter and to inaugurate >a so-called world order, whose basic parameters are designed to suit the >interests of certain centers of global power." In debates on the topic >"Realization of peace, stability and global development in the world and the >encouragement of close political, economic and cultural links between >peoples," Dacic pointed out that today everyone knows that what transpired >were efforts of the United States and NATO to legalize the right to >intervention and the concept of unipolar hegemony. Dacic stressed that the >current disastrous situation in Kosovo-Metohija was clear evidence that the >aggressors and their followers under the U.N. flag had no intention to help >stabilize the situation, or to take care of people living in Kosovo and >Metohija.

SERBIAN PROVINCE OF >KOSOVO AND METOHIJA SERBS RALLY IN KOSOVSKA MITROVICA KOSOVSKA MITROVICA, May >3 (Tanjug) - Thousands of Serbs and other non-Albanians rallied in the north >of divided Kosovska Mitrovica in the U.N.-ruled Serbian province of Kosovo- >Metohija at noon on Wednesday. The rally, organised by the Serbian National >Council for north Kosovo-Metohija, appealed to all displaced Serbs, primarily >those from the Istok and Klina municipalities, to return to their homes. The >assembled Serbs vowed to boycott the census and elections planned by the >Organisation for Security and Cooperation in Europe (OSCE) to be held in >Kosovo-Metohija. The Serbs said the Council, which enjoys the support of some >60,000 people, is unanimous in the determination not to join U.N. envoy >Bernard Kouchner's Provisional Administrative Council as long as the 350,000 >displaced non-Albanians are repatriated.

Jovanovic told >Tanjug that after a routine inspection of his documents and car, Danish troops >required from Jovanovic to take a photograph of him, and of his car. When he >asked for an explanation for the photographing, against a wall of piled sand >bags, Jovanovic was told it was only "routine." The Yugoslav committee member >categorically refused to be photographed, stressing that they can do that only >if he allows it or if they suspect him of having committed a criminal act, for >what they would first have to arrest and question him. After an hour and a >half of mistreatment, the troops let Jovanovic go, and photographed only his >car.

After almost nine hours of cross questioning in the U.S. >base, they were taken with ties hands to Strpce, where they were released. >U.S. KFOR troops arrested engineers Radomir Bisercic (42), Miodrag Ilic (38) >and Jovica Livrinic (34) on their way to Molika hotel, where they were headed >to repair a mobile phone transmitter covering the municipality of Strpce. They >were arrested, it was explained, "because they are not residents of that >municipality and because they came accompanied by Russian troops." The >municipality of Strpce has been without telephone links with Serbia for almost >eight months, waiting in vain for KFOR to open telephone links from the >direction of Urosevac.

Shrapnel >injured the head of Dragan Stanojevic (22) who has been treated and his wound >is not life threatening. Several boys and girls were slightly injured and are >in a state of shock from the explosion.

FROM >FOREIGN PRESS SANCTIONS AGAINST YUGOSLAVIA DETRIMENTAL AND COUNTERPRODUCTIVE >LONDON, May 3 (Tanjug) - Sanctions against Yugoslavia are damaging and >counterproductive, "The Financial Times" warned on Wednesday, citing a report >of the U.N. economic commission for Europe. Keeping in place sanctions, the >London newspaper said, would be contrary to promised projects of aid for the >economic recovery of Southeastern Europe. The recovery of the Balkans will be >increasingly difficult without the participation of FR Yugoslavia whose >economy is continuously weakened by sanctions. __________________________________ KOMINFORM P.O.
