"The #ICTY has questioned General Ivan #Andabak over his alleged involvement in supplying the #RealIRA with weapons. In addition, the police are investigating the role of an Irish aid worker from County Louth who has longstanding connections to Catholic charities in Croatia and is thought to be involved in the arms-smuggling network. That was spelt out in detail in the Boston Globe last Friday. Again I ask the authorities in Croatia to have a closer look at some of the people in some of the NGOs. Some of them are clearly damaging the Belfast agreement in Ireland."
"Real IRA was responsible for the terrible bomb in Omagh when almost 30 people were killed. Recently, RPG rockets were fired in both Northern Ireland and London. The source of those armaments appears to be Croatia. I ask the Croatian authorities to do their utmost to ensure that the flow of armaments from Croatia to Ireland is ended. I commend the Croatian police because I hear in Dublin that that they were successful in intercepting a huge haul of guns, detonators and plastic explosives destined for the Real IRA. However, the Garda Siochana has since confirmed that the Real IRA managed to smuggle an undisclosed number of weapons and bomb-making equipment out of the Balkans to Ireland. For us in the island of Ireland, that is bad news, so I ask the authorities to look into that." (Honouring of obligations and commitments by Croatia resumed debate, Mr Taylor (United Kingdom, 26 SEPTEMBER 2000).
