Default Holbrooke:Serb Karadžić,Europe's Bin Laden,

Serb Karadžić is Europe's Bin Laden, says Holbrooke

SARAJEVO -- Richard Holbrooke maintains that he "never made a deal with Hague fugitive Radovan Karadžić".

The American diplomat, who helped create the Dayton peace deal that ended the war in Bosnia-Herzegovina, yesterday in Sarajevo denied allegations that he reached an agreement with the former Bosnian Serb president.

The long-standing claim, recently repeated by the Hague Prosecution's former spokeswoman Florence Hartmann, says that Karadžić received guaranties he would never be arrested if he withdrew from Bosnia's political life.

“I did not make any kind of deal with Karadžić, he is a war criminal. He is the Osama Bin Laden of Europe,” Holbrooke said to a Bosnia-Herzegovina television station.

He said that "Karadžić made up the story and leaked it to the media".

Holbrooke added that he is very disappointed by the fact that Karadžić and Ratko Mladić have not been arrested yet, adding that their arrests must be a priority and that “nothing should continue until the two of them are brought to face justice,” Beta news agency said.

The former U.S. diplomat aslo said that the people of Bosnia-Herzegovina have the chance to create a modern country “with the capital of Sarajevo, and two existing entities.”

“The central institutions need to be strengthened in Sarajevo, and there must be work put in to reconciliation,” Holbrooke said, adding that the Bosnia-Herzegovina education system, the division of schools by ethnicity, "is the most dangerous thing for Bosnia".

“In Bosnia-Herzegovina, the children are learning three different, fake histories and that is wrong,” he said.

Holbrooke is in Bosnia-Herzegovina with a team of reporters and cameramen from CNN, who are making a documentary film on the Srebrenica war crimes.
