HUMAN RIGHTS IMPLEMENTATION SHOULD STRESS COOPERATION, NOT CONFRONTATION, AUSTRALIA TELLS THIRD COMMITTEE CORRECTION

19971119

In Press Release GA/SHC/3451 of 18 November, the final paragraph on the first page should read as follows:

"Stressing that the war was over and Croatia was now committed to human rights and international humanitarian law, the representative of that country asked if the Committee should still be considering the human rights situation in his country. At the same time, however, he said his Government remained deeply concerned about the situation of human rights in other countries in the region, particularly the plight of Bosnian Croats in Bosnia and Herzegovina and ethnic Croats if the Federal Republic of Yugoslavia."
