KL's stance on Bosnia unchanged

KUALA LUMPUR (Reuter): Malaysian Prime Minister Mahathir Mohamad said yesterday his plan to defend Bosnian Moslems from Serb aggression was unchanged, despite the resignation of the Balkan state's prime minister.

"We support whoever represents the government of Bosnia," Mahathir said in response to questions on whether Malaysia's stance on Bosnia would change with (Haris) Silajdzic's resignation.

Silajdzic quit last Thursday during a Bosnian parliament session without making his reasons public.

Mahathir was speaking to reporters after officiating at a building ceremony at Malaysia's Petronas Twin Towers.
