NATO troops, police move
into Serb-held territory
TUZLA, Bosnia-Herzegovina (AP)
— NATO-led troops took up posi
tions in at least two towns early today
to prevent violence between Serb
factions, but drew an angry response
from stone-throwing civilians, wit
nesses and officials said.
The peace force, in a statement,
said it moved to “deter the outbreak
of violence” after receiving indica
tions that forces loyal to Bosnian
Serb President Biljana Plavsic
would try to take control of police
stations and the media in Serb-held
areas of northern Bosnia.
Plavsic is locked in a power
struggle with officials loyal to war
crimes suspect Radovan Karadzic.
While NATO troops already have
taken action against police loyal to
Plavsic in her northern power base
of Banja Luka, international offi
cials strongly support her drive to
isolate Karadzic.
The NATO statement said that
both regular police and the better-
equipped special police were re
ported to be carrying unauthorized
long-barrel weapons.
NATO said its troops — which in
cluded Americans — were posi
tioning themselves to prevent vio
lence, were conducting
reconnaissance, and were support
ing U.N. police whose job it is to
monitor local police units.
However, they met an angry re
ception.
Ljuba Maratovic, director of the
pro-Karadzic radio station in Brcko,
said soldiers of the NATO-led peace
force equipped with armored vehi
cles, most of them Americans, ar
rived at the main Brcko police sta
tion during the night.
He said in a telephone inter
view that local officials and citi
zens prevented them from enter-

German, French leaders discus
stability of european current
BONN, Germany (AP) — Seeking fresh momentum
toward a European currency, Germany and France
pledged Thursday to work for a stable euro that will
start on time in 1999.
Chancellor Helmut Kohl won the commitment in
talks with French premier Lionel Jospin, whose 3-
month-old Socialist government has stressed reducing
high unemployment over cutting spending to meet the
strict fiscal criteria set to qualify for the euro.
Both countries face potential budget deficits this
year above 3 percent of gross domestic product, which
is the limit laid down in the treaty for monetary union.
But Kohl and Jospin, on his first trip to Bonn since
taking office, agreed that introducing the euro “ac
cording to the timetable with strict respect for the sta
bility criteria” is essential for Europe’s competitiveness
in the global economy, Kohl spokesman Peter Haus-
mann said.
“Germany and France are committed to the agree
ments without reservations and will do everything to
meet the conditions for introducing the euro," Haus-
mann said.
Jospin’s government last month announced
business taxes after a government audit sk

France has conceded it still will probably noirJ

Paris has been irritated by calls from someGeri
politicians for delaying the euro if theFrenchcJ
make it.
Most forecasts say Germany will not makethe3:|

He fears the euro project will collapse if it does
start on time. But he also is under pressurefronii
