From Times Wire Reports
The United States lifted its freeze on a $10-million aid package for Serbia and Montenegro, saying the Balkan country had shown better cooperation with the U.N. war crimes tribunal.
The U.S. in January withheld the funds because of Serbia and Montenegro’s failure to arrest and extradite several Serb suspects to the tribunal in The Hague. Last year, $16 million in U.S. aid was withheld for the same reason.
