Carrington-Cutileiro

Map of Carrington-Cutileiro peace plan

The Carrington-Cutileiro peace plan, named for its authors Lord Carrington and Portuguese ambassador Jorge Cutileiro, resulted from the EC Peace Conference held in September 1991 in an attempt to prevent Bosnia-Herzegovina sliding into war. It proposed ethnic power-sharing on all administrative levels and the devolution of central government to local ethnic communities. However, all Bosnia-Herzegovina's districts would be classified as Bosnian, Serbian or Croatian under the plan, even where no ethnic majority was evident. Initially the plan was accepted by all three sides (Bosniaks, Serbs and Croats) but eventually Alija Izetbegovic (Bosnian leader, Bosniak) withdraws his consent.

In early January 1993, the UN Special Envoy Cyrus Vance and EC representative Lord Owen began negotiating a peace proposal with the leaders of Bosnia's warring factions. The proposal, which became known as the "Vance-Owen peace plan", involved the division of Bosnia into ten semi-autonomous regions and received the backing of the UN. On May 5, however, the self-proclaimed Bosnian Serb assembly rejected the Vance-Owen plan; and on June 18, Lord Owen declared that the plan was "dead".
