HC Deb 22 June 1992 vol 210 c25W
Mr. Llew Smith

To ask the Secretary of State for Foreign and Commonwealth Affairs if he will make a statement on the implementation of United Nation's Security Council resolutions relating to Yugoslavia and Bosnia-Herzegovina.

Mr. Douglas Hogg

We are seeking the implementation in full of all Security Council resolutions on Yugoslavia. Resolution 752 of 15 May 1992 demanded, inter alia, a ceasefire in Bosnia-Herzegovina and an end to interference in that state by the Yugoslav people's army (JNA) and Croatian army. Resolution 757 of 30 May imposed wide-ranging sanctions on Serbia and Montenegro as a way of bringing pressure on them to comply with resolution 752. Resolution 757 has been implemented in the United Kingdom and its dependent territories by five Orders in Council. We fully support the efforts of the United Nations to implement resolution 758 of 8 June which aims to secure Sarajevo airport in order to deliver humanitarian assistance.
