We are writing to you in your capacity as Chairman of the National Council on Cooperation with the International Criminal Tribunal for the former Yugoslavia (ICTY). We welcome several recent important developments toward greater cooperation with the ICTY, including the passage of a law by the Federal Parliament and the surrender of several senior indictees to The Hague. With the law in place we look forward to the early apprehension of those indictees who have not voluntarily surrendered to the Tribunal, and their swift transfer to The Hague.
