Unfortunately, nothing happened. Mladic was not arrested, although he is within the reach of the authorities in Belgrade.
We'll see tomorrow if they have detained and arrested him. Tomorrow we'll adopt our position on the co-operation with Belgrade.
Mladic is in Serbia, and as you know, Mladic is protected with power of the army.
Mladic is in Serbia and, as you know, Mladic is protected by power of the army. What I need is an... obligation from Belgrade to arrest him and deliver him to The Hague.
Milosevic has very good doctors in The Hague and all that he needs for his health. He can have it even in the detention unit....
Milosevic had the best medical care you can imagine.
Of course, priority is the arrest of fugitives.
My disappointment - my big disappointment - is because six fugitives are still at large, most probably in Serbia, and that includes, of course, Mladic,
I firmly believe that there can be no lasting peace in a society unless the criminal justice system is allowed to take its course.
He was arrested this night in Spain... he is now in detention, finally. He will be transferred to The Hague.
I also regret it for the victims, the thousands of victims, who have been waiting for justice.
He could have done it as a last act of defiance towards us. Perhaps he did commit suicide.
It is a great pity for justice that the (Milosevic) trial will not be completed and no verdict will be rendered.
Someone not afraid to get her hands dirty.
I still have six remaining fugitives at large. Since April 2004, no one has been transferred to The Hague.
It deprives the victims of the justice they need and deserve.
We must now wait for the results of the autopsy to see the cause of death but we have no choice (but) between a normal natural death and suicide.
The prosecutor expects that Serbia will live up to its promises given to her during her last visit in Belgrade and deliver Mladic before that date,
The death of Slobodan Milosevic, a few weeks before the completion of his trial, will prevent justice to be done in his case.
whose continuing liberty is an affront to the authority of this council.
This represents a wealth of evidence that is on the record. It is not only a question of convictions and sentencing. It is also a question of facts and truth.
There is no indication at all that negotiations about his surrender are currently being conducted.
We are very pleased with the cooperation we received from Belgrade. Finally we can say we have a reciprocal cooperation between The Hague and Belgrade.
The transfer of Slobodan Milosevic will now lend renewed energy to the task of arresting those fugitives who are still at liberty.
Ratko Mladic is in Serbia. There is no doubt about this. He has been there since 1998. During all this time he has been and remains within reach of the Serbian authorities.
Now more than ever I expect Serbia to finally arrest and transfer Ratko Mladic and Radovan Karadzic to The Hague as soon as possible. The death of Slobodan Milosevic makes it even more urgent for them to face justice.
They said they have no intelligence, and I don't believe that, ... The Vatican refuses totally to cooperate with us.
They said they have no intelligence and I don't believe that. I think that the Catholic Church has the most advanced intelligence services.
(There was) no negotiation at all. The only contact was because she wanted to voluntarily surrender.
It is true that the co-operation with Belgrade has started,
The obvious conclusion is that I was misled when I was told at the end of March that the arrest of Mladic would be a matter of days or weeks.
That is what I am asking from Croatia - to do immediately what must be done. I'm confident that maybe next week something will happen on this ground,
Serbia knows that negotiations may be suspended or may never be concluded if Belgrade fails to cooperate fully.
The Federal Prosecutor's office has opened an investigation into a suspected violation of the ban against illegal gathering of political and perhaps military intelligence.
The false rumors spread yesterday from Belgrade about the arrest of Mladic have absolutely no basis whatsoever.
I hope that will be now possible also to arrest Karadzic, so we can have only one trial with both.
In Kosovo our pending inquiries are now almost concerned with the exhumations because we have more than 300 graves and mass graves to exhume this year.
I regret deeply what happened ... It is regrettable for all witnesses, for all survivors, for all victims that are expecting justice.
If there was one person who was not overlooked it was Milosevic.
before the end of September and I would be really very happy if I had the possibility to assess positively.
I cannot accept that anymore, but particularly I cannot accept anymore words and promises of full cooperation that is not arriving.
I can confirm that Mladic is in Serbia. But Karadzic, I don't know where he is.
The history of Serbia is not under examination. It is Slobodan Milosevic as an individual who will now face trial on the charges brought against him.
The information which was presented to me at that time to substantiate that the positive outcome could be expected soon, has proven to be wrong or largely misrepresented.
