<p>The Dayton Peace Agreement ended a brutal war and remains the basis for the state
of Bosnia-Herzegovina (BiH), its constitution and our engagement. We are disappointed
that twenty years on BiH has not made greater progress on its Euro-Atlantic path and
we remain concerned about the political and security situation on the ground. Last
year, the Secretary of State for Foreign and Commonwealth Affairs, my right Hon. Friend
the Member for Runnymede and Weybridge (Mr Hammond), and his German counterpart launched
an initiative (now endorsed by the EU) to inject momentum into BiH’s EU accession
path and to prioritise reforms that will build prosperity and security for all. We
continue to press the BiH governments to implement those reforms and to refrain from
divisive, nationalist politicking that undermines progress.</p>
