ASNE on the move
Serb, Croatian
treatment of journalists
In a letter to Secretary of State Madeleine Albright, ASNE president
Sandy Rowe has expressed ASNE’s "strong concerns regarding abuse
of press freedoms in the territories of the former Yugoslavia as defined
by the Dayton Accords."
The ASNE president wrote, "Journalists, both local and foreign, have
been harassed, detained, threatened with arrest and sometimes beaten, particularly
in Serb- and Croatian-controlled areas.
"Obviously, these practices are detrimental to the peace process and
a violation of the spirit and letter of the Dayton Accords."
