NATO relations with Bosnia and Herzegovina

Part I: BUILDING PEACE tells of NATO’s gradual engagement in support of United Nations’ efforts to end the Bosnian War (1992-1995) and the deployment of its first peacekeeping force in December 1995.

Part II: REFORMING THE MILITARY shows how NATO’s support for essential defence reforms in Bosnia and Herzegovina has helped downsize the armed forces and turn them into a single military force under state-level control.

Part III: THE ROAD TO INTEGRATION highlights the country’s deepening partnership with NATO and provides an insight into the challenges ahead on the road to the country’s possible membership of the Alliance.
