TIME correspondent Alexandra Niksic reports that there is still no word from Bosnian Serb leaders Radovan Karadzic and General Ratko Mladic about the agreement. "That is somewhat worrisome," says Niksic. "There is an obvious mixed reaction in Pale, the city that has become the de-facto capitol of the Bosnian Serb government lead by Karadzic. Officials are not happy with the agreement, but ordinary people are feeling relieved. One woman, the wife of a local leader, told me that she welcomes the agreement because it is a chance for the Bosnian Serbs to have their own country. 'We can live...
Serbian President Slobodan Milosevic has signaled his willingness to exclude Bosnian-Serb "president" Radovan Karadzic and military commander Ratko Mladic from political office in the country. But he has not agreed to the Bosnian demand that they be extradited to the Hague, where they have been indicted for war crimes by the International Criminal Tribunal for the Former Yugoslavia. Last week, in a clear signal to Milosevic, the tribunal indicted two current and one former officer of the Yugoslav army for their role in the murder of 260 non-Serbs seized at a hospital in Vukovar in November...
Meeting at the heavily guarded Wright-Patterson Air Force Base outside Dayton, Ohio, the leaders of Bosnia, Croatia and Serbia made limited progress on plans for ending the 42-month-old war in Bosnia. Secretary of State Warren Christopher said the U.S. expects Bosnian Serb leaders Radovan Karadzic and Ratko Mladic to be ousted from power shortly; the two have been indicted by an international tribunal as war criminals...

Izetbegovic, in an interview with the New York Times, said he would sign nothing unless he was assured that Radovan Karadzic and General Ratko Mladic would be dismissed as leaders of the Bosnian Serbs--presumably by Milosevic, who is representing both his own country and the Bosnian Serbs at the talks. Karadzic and Mladic cannot attend in person, since they are indicted war criminals wanted for trial in the Hague...
...State Warren Christopher has said that "vast differences [remain] to be bridged." Christopher has insisted on dealing with human rights questions, including the massacres of Muslims by Bosnian Serbs. He has also made it clear that no U.S. troops would be sent to the area if Bosnian Serb leaders Radovan Karadzic and General Ratko Mladic -- now under indictment by the international war crimes tribunal -- are still in power...
