Bosnia And Herzegovina Destabilisation Of National Institutions

Department of Foreign Affairs and Trade

The Australian Government is concerned by recent developments that destabilise Bosnia and Herzegovina's national institutions and inflame ethnic tensions.

Australia recognised Bosnia and Herzegovina in May 1992, shortly after its independence. We continue to strongly support Bosnia and Herzegovina's sovereignty, territorial integrity, constitutional order, as well as its continued peace and multi-ethnic character.

We welcome all efforts to build and maintain stability in Bosnia and Herzegovina through the implementation of the 1995 Dayton Peace accord, overseen by the High Representative for Bosnia and Herzegovina.

We call on all political leaders in Bosnia and Herzegovina to act in the interest of all citizens, and to respect and comply with the decisions of Bosnia and Herzegovina's institutions including the Constitutional Court.
