Description
The General Framework Agreement for Peace in Bosnia and Herzegovina , also known as the Dayton Agreement or the Dayton Accords (Croatian: Daytonski sporazum , Bosnian and Serbian: Dejtonski mirovni sporazum / Дејтонски мировни споразум), is the peace agreement reached at Wright- Patterson Air Force Base near Dayton, Ohio, United States, finalised on 21 November 1995, and formally signed in Paris, on 14 December 1995. These accords put an end to the three-and-a-half-year-long Bosnian War, which was part of the much larger Yugoslav Wars.
The warring parties agreed to peace and to a single sovereign state known as Bosnia and Herzegovina composed of two parts, the largely Serb-populated Republika Srpska and mainly Croat-Bosniak-populated Federation of Bosnia and Herzegovina.
The agreement has been criticized for creating ineffective and unwieldy political structures and entrenching the ethnic cleansing of the previous war.
