The announcement was made in Belgrade today by U.S. undersecretary of state Nicholas Burns.
He said the resumption of some $10 million in aid is in return for Prime Minister Vojislav Kostunica's success in convincing a dozen war crimes suspects to surrender to The Hague-based tribunal.
Burns also said he believes Serbia is making serious efforts to bring to justice top war crimes fugitive Ratko Mladic, the wartime Bosnian Serb army commander.
In a related development, one of the dozen suspects who surrendered to the Hague in the last few months, Serbian former general Momcilo Perisic, was granted provisional release on 9 June.
