BOSNIA: TUZLA: US GENERAL WARNS AGAINST THREATS MADE TO UN TROOPS

(9 Feb 1996) English/Nat Any threats against peacekeeping troops in Bosnia are a violation of the Dayton peace agreement, a top U-S General has warned. General John Shalikashvili, chairman of the U-S Joint Chiefs of Staff, was speaking in Tuzla where he's visiting U-S troops in the NATO-led peacekeeping force in northern Bosnia. General Shalikashvili arrived in Tuzla by civilian plane. He was greeted by the commander of U-S forces in Bosnia, Maj. Gen. William Nash. After a brief Shalikashvili headed off to meet some of the U-S troops and inspect their quarters. Shalikashvili clearly stated that any threats against I-FOR are a violation of the Dayton agreement. He also admitted that there had been rumours of such threats. SOUNDBITE: "I find any threats against I-FOR to be a gross violation of the Dayton agreement. I will treat it as such and I find it totally unacceptable. " (Q)"Have there been any threats against I-FOR ?" (A) " There are rumours of threats and I simply do not accept that, will act accordingly and anyone who thinks that they can threaten I-FOR and consider it a minor issue is flat wrong. The Dayton agreement is quite clear on that." SUPER CAPTION: General John Shalikashvili, Chairman of the U-S Joint Chiefs of Staff Shalikashvili is to visit Sarajevo later in the day.
