1. Government and Serb officials have agreed on paper to open two airport crossings by Wednesday. 2. Detailed talks on the airport crossings began on Thursday and produced an accord early Friday evening. 3. During the four months while they were opened, commercial trucks used the airport crossing, bringing in food and other items. 4. Every day, hundreds of trucks and dozens of government-run buses and cars make the airport crossing. 5. Reactivating the airport crossing was stipulated in a global New Year truce signed by the Moslem-led government and rebel Serb authorities. 6. Reopening the airport crossing, running between the Moslem towns of Dobrinja and Butmir, to UN agencies is likely to have little impact on Sarajevo. 7. The airport crossings had been available to a wide range of civilian and commercial use, under terms of a March agreement, until last July. |
