Bosnia Report - December 1999 - February 2000: The Dayton Peace Accord (2302 words)
The chances of the survival of Bosnia-Herzegovina are constrained by its Dayton architecture: the disequilibrium between its integrity, from the perspective of international law, and its partition, from the perspective of internal law.
The primary objective of the Dayton Accord was to halt the hostilities in former Yugoslavia and in Bosnia-Herzegovina.
The Dayton Accord was created with the decisive participation of the international community, and in particular of leading Western countries and of the European Union, and there is no doubt that they deserve credit for all the positive results of the Accord.
