Miners not giving up, still waiting for someone from the FBiH Government to address them: 'Come out'

SARAJEVO, (Patria) - Miners from seven mines of the EP BiH Concern have been in front of the FBiH Government building for four hours. They say they will not disperse until their demands are met. They will also call on other miners to join them.

At times, firecrackers can be heard, but it is calm and dignified. Sporadically, they chant the name of Prime Minister Fadil Novalić and Minister Nermin Džindić. The minister came out before the miners today accompanied by special forces, but they turned their backs on him and did not allow him to speak.

The miners are still waiting for someone to address them. They have refused calls for talks and do not want to send anyone into the FBiH Government building.

Between the Government building and the miners is the federal police.

They chant: "Come out", "We won't give you coal."
