Mr. Speaker, the Prime Minister has been quite clear on Canada's participation in this very troubled mission and I do not propose to repeat it.
I subscribe to some of the points raised by the hon. member. We in Canada believe that obviously those detained should be released, that the hostilities should cease, that there should be a ceasefire, and that the Sarajevo airport should be reopened. We believe all of that and we believe that can be accomplished by negotiation.
We are very sorry that the Secretary-General of the UN was denied a meeting today. I would only hope that this is yet another bargaining ploy on the part of those who refused to meet with him and that they will get down to meaningful negotiations within the next few days.
