Thank you for your memo of 27 June on the above mentioned visit. As offered, I would very much like to have CIVPOL in Sector North participate in the visit, particularly in view of the important role the officers play in the Zone of Separation. 2. I believe that Mr Zhiang, the Civil Affairs Coordinator, in Sector North is co ordinating the detail of the visit. I am unsure as to what briefing arrangements he is making for the visit but would hope that CIVPOL is involved. Ideally, and of course depending on the length of time the US party will be on board the bus they are travelling in whilst in the Zone of Separation, I would like a representative of CIVPOL to be on board to answer any questions that might arise. 3. Again I am unsure of the contacts that the CAC in Sector North has made with the local authorities in the Sector, but I do know that Mr Hrvoje Sarinic, Head of the State Com.mission of the Republic of Croatia for relations with UNPROFOR, has been informed of the visit by the HCA. I hope therefore that there will not be any problems at the Croatian checkpoint on entering the Sector. 4. I am most grateful for your help with this visit. ,,..-. , --r ·, "it 1M , • ( I I IMMEDIATE ft ¥7 _ UNPR.OFOR . \- \ ROUTIHB PRIORr.l'Y ~IATB HOST IIUIBDIATE UMCLAS \UNRESTRICTED CO:Nl'IOENTIAL lJll SBCRE'i' ONLY Date/Time; JO Jwie 1994 .

You will note the opinion of the ore, Sector North, that the efforts of the Serb milicija are limited and that more concerted attention by the Knin authorities wou l d better safeguard and minimize damage to such monuments. Please raise this matter wi th Mr. Prij i c ("Minister of the Interior") and also with higher Serb author i ties as circumstances arise. You could point out that such cultural monuments are an asset to any society and that failure to protect them adequately not only risks the destruction of irrep l aceable monuments but also generates negative loca l and internat i onal perceptions.
