The cooperation with Croatia is satisfactory with the exception of its failure to render Ante Gotovina to the Tribunal.

The authorities of Croatia continue to provide the Prosecutor full co operation on the search for Ante Gotovina.

I wish to express my thanks to the Governments of Croatia and of Spain for having brought Ante Gotovina to The Hague.

Bosnia and Herzegovina welcomes the apprehension of General Ante Gotovina in Spain and his transfer to The Hague.

The arrest of Ante Gotovina on 7 December is indeed a welcome development, but also a long overdue one.

On 29 September, the Croatian authorities provided me with indisputable evidence that Ante Gotovina was in Spain.

It is clear, to all Council members that the transfer of Ante Gotovina to the International Criminal Tribunal for the Former Yugoslavia (ICTY) is a very significant step.

Mr. Ante Gotovina, one of the most notorious of the accused, has recently been transferred to the Detention Unit of The Hague.

It was with great relief that we learned of the recent arrest and transfer to the ICTY of the fugitive former General Ante Gotovina of Croatia.

Of the remaining seven fugitives, Ratko Mladić, Radovan Karadžić and Ante Gotovina of course remain the most notorious.

In July, the Hague Tribunal for the Former Yugoslavia charged two Croatian generals Rahim Ademi and Ante Gotovina with war crimes.

In 1941, the Croatian radical right wing Ustashi movement came to power and formed the Independent State of Croatia (NDH), led by Ante Pavelić.

In mid April, 1945 he met with Draža Mihailović who instructed him to meet with the leader of the Independent State of Croatia, Ante Pavelić.

The Prosecutor of the International Tribunal for the Former Yugoslavia expressed her dismay that Radovan Karadzic, Ratko Mladic and Ante Gotovina continued to evade the authority of the Tribunal.

History Austria Hungary The Croatian People's Peasant Party ( Hrvatska pučka seljačka stranka ) was formed on December 22, 1904 by Antun Radić along with his brother Stjepan Radić.

As is well known, Croatia has worked with the Tribunal in implementing its action plan for the resolution of the sole outstanding matter, namely, the case of Ante Gotovina.

We have also noted with appreciation the efforts made by neighbouring States and by the International Criminal Tribunal for the Former Yugoslavia (ICTY) in the arrest of Ante Gotovina on 7 December.

It is expected that Croatia will continue to provide unhampered access to documents and to act aggressively against the criminal networks providing support and protection to Ante Gotovina.

The apprehension and transfer of General Ante Gotovina to ICTY custody represents the most significant achievement of the last six months and, at the same time, a landmark in the overall activity of the Tribunal.

As members of the Council are undoubtedly aware, Ante Gotovina, one of the Tribunal's highest level accused and who has long been at large, was recently arrested in Spain and was transferred to the Tribunal on 10 December.

In addition, the transfer of Ante Gotovina to The Hague, following his arrest by Spanish authorities in the Canary Islands, is an important development in establishing accountability for serious violations of international humanitarian law.

While cooperation with all States in the region continues to improve, the failure to arrest high level accused such as Radovan Karadžić, Ratko Mladić and Ante Gotovina remains a major concern.

Unfortunately, the most important indictees, including those mentioned in several Security Council resolutions, Radovan Karadzic, Ratko Mladic and Ante Gotovina, have not yet appeared in The Hague.

We reiterate the need to intensify efforts to arrest and transfer Radovan Karadzic, Ratko Mladic and Ante Gotovina to the ICTY and Félicien Kabuga to the ICTR for trial.

Turning first of all to the ICTY and the question of indictees and cooperation, it is, of course, excellent news that Ante Gotovina has now been arrested, and we welcome the participation of the Croatian authorities and the swift action of the Spanish authorities to transfer him to The Hague.

Since April 2005, Croatian authorities have been implementing an action plan for cooperation with the Tribunal, in particular with regard to the last outstanding issue, that of fugitive Ante Gotovina.

Since our last meeting, we have received some good news the arrest of Ante Gotovina, one of the four fugitives referred to by name in Council resolutions.

With the recent apprehension of Ante Gotovina, the international community must now exercise additional scrutiny of Serbia and Montenegro and the Bosnian Serb authorities to ensure their full cooperation with the Tribunal.

As called for in numerous Security Council resolutions, all persons indicted by the ICTY must be arrested and surrendered to the court in The Hague, particularly Radovan Karadzic, Ratko Mladic and Ante Gotovina.

In that regard, we welcome the arrest and transfer of Croatian ICTY indictee Ante Gotovina to the Tribunal, and congratulate the Croatian and Spanish authorities for their efforts leading to his arrest.

That leaves us with only seven fugitives who have yet to be apprehended, although we remain gravely concerned that included among those seven are three of the most important indictees Radovan Karadžić, Ratko Mladić and Ante Gotovina.

At its sixth session Mr. Ante Zedelj (Croatia) was re elected as Chairman and Mrs. Maria Teresa Sao Pedro (Portugal), Mr. Andrzej Fronski (Poland) and Mr. Alexander Karasevich (Russian Federation) were re elected Vice Chairpersons.
