THE HAGUE, Netherlands -- Macedonian Parliament Speaker Trajko Veljanovski visited convicted war criminal Johan Tarculovski at the Scheveningen detention facility in The Hague on Tuesday (August 26th). He is the only Macedonian ever imprisoned by The Hague war crimes tribunal.

Veljanovski assured him of Macedonia's continuing support in appealing that conviction. (Vecer - 27/08/08; Netpress, MIA - 26/08/08)
