  • Story Text: United States (U.S.) peace envoy Richard Holbrooke met United Nations (U.N.) Commander Bernard Janvier in Zagreb on Monday (September 18).

    Holbrooke, who met Serbian President Slobodan Milosevic earlier in the day, reported progress in his peace shuttle in Belgrade but said the Bosnian Serbs must complete their pullback of siege guns from Sarajevo or face renewed North Atlantic Treaty Organisation (NATO) air strikes.

    After meeting Janvier, Holbrooke said he had reviewed the situation in Sarajevo during his talks with the Commander.
