Interview with British UN commander General Sir Michael Rose, following the arrival of the first Bosnian aid convoy in several months in the besieged Muslim enclave of Bihac. The town has been blocked since 06/94 by rebel Serbs who have been trying to starve the residents out. Rose says it is unlikely that their protection force will be withdrawn from the country in the foreseeable future despite NATO saying contingency plans for a possible evacuation are underway.
