Encyclopedia > Dayton Peace Agreement

The Dayton Agreement or Dayton Accords is the name given to the agreement at Wright-Patterson Air Force Base in Dayton, Ohio to end the war in the former Yugoslavia that had gone on for the previous three years, in particular the future of Bosnia and Herzegovina.


The conference took place from November 1 to November 21, 1995. The main participants were Serbian President Slobodan Milošević, Croatian President Franjo Tuđman, Bosnian President Alija Izetbegović, chief American negotiator Richard Holbrooke and General Wesley Clark.


The formal agreement was signed in Paris, France on December 14.


The present political divisions of Bosnia and Herzegovina and its structure of government were generally agreed upon as part of the Dayton accords.

Dayton Agreement - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia (603 words)
The negotiations were initiated following the unsuccessful previous peace efforts and arrangements, the August 1995 Croatian military Operation Storm and its aftermath, the Bosniak-Croat military offensive against the Republika Srpska, in concert with NATO's Operation Deliberate Force, i.e the bombardment of the Bosnian Serb military.
The peace conference was chaired by American negotiator Richard Holbrooke with two Co-Chairmen in the form of EU Special Representative Carl Bildt and the First Deputy Foreign Minister of Russia Igor Ivanov.
In a far-from-subtle hint of the consequences should agreement not be reached, early in the talks a dinner for the participants was held in a hangar at the nearby U.S. Air Force Museum.
