Th e proposal according to which the UN operation, pursuant to paragraph 5 of the proposed draft of the Resolution, ought to be “a provisional arrangement for the creation of conditions leading to an agreed solution which will be in accordance with the territorial integrity of the Republic of Croatia” is absolutely unacceptable if it refers to the territory of the Republic of Serbian Krajina. Th e Republic of Serbian Krajina, the sovereign state of the Serbian people and of all its citizens, is not part of any Croatian state, and it will not accept any UN arrangement which would bring it into such a position against its will. Th e Government of the Republic of Serbian Krajina considers the engagement of UN peacekeeping forces in its territory unacceptable if their name implies prejudiced political solutions to the disadvantage of the Serbian people and the Republic of Serbian Krajina. Th e Government of the Republic of Serbian Krajina cannot permit the blockade of the borders of the Republic of Serbian Krajina by any armed forces which would be contrary to the principles of the current mandate of the UN protective force.

6 April 1995 Mr. President, Th e tragedy which has befallen the Serbian people through the latest aggression of Croatia against Western Slavonia has grave and immeasurable consequences for the overall Serbian cause. Territory was lost, hundreds of civilians were killed 35 , but what at the present terrible moment gives rise to even greater anxiety is the widespread belief of the people that the Serbian cause has been betrayed, betrayed moreover by the very Serbs. Rumours are spreading throughout Krajina that it was sold down the river, and people conclude with disbelief that we have been forgotten by both Serbia and Republika Srpska. In many villages and towns people are packing and preparing to leave. In view of this newly arisen disbelief in the possibility of survival in the RSK, caused by the manifested doubt that we have been left to our own resources, this doubt must be urgently dispelled. Th e only way to achieve this in an effi cient way would be the prompt interim deployment of about two thousand troops of the Yugoslav Army and Serbian MUP police in the Krajina garrisons. Th ey would not be deployed along the front line but would rather, with their presence in Gračac, Petrinja, Benkovac, Slunj and Knin, restore the psychological stability of the population and give the RSK authorities time to improve and stabilize the situation. Unless this step is taken right away, I believe it will be late for anything else. All the representatives of the RSK authorities are in agreement with this matter. Mr. President. I am convinced you fully understand the situation and our diffi culties, and would therefore kindly ask you to take immediately the steps required for the realization of our demand. I look forward to discussing all other forms of assistance with you personally before long. Th e Krajina needs you. THE PRESIDENT OF THE REPUBLIC Milan Martić (stamp) 36 ____________________ Original, typewritten, Cyrillic script HR-HMDCDR, 2, box 229 35 Untrue, usual Serbian propaganda. 36 Round stamp with the text: RSK, President of the Republic, Knin 229
