Press Release - Special Briefing on Maintaining Bosnia’s Sovereignty, Peace, and Security

Policy Note: Critical Preventative Measures: Maintaining Bosnia’s Sovereignty, Peace, and Security.

On 16 Oct 2025, the Standing Group on Atrocity Crimes published a policy briefing on the critical threats facing Bosnia-Herzegovina (BiH) and the immediate steps the UK Government should take to reaffirm the rule of law,and maintain the peace. These measures are specifically concerned with preventing instability which could lead to the re-occurrence of conflict and relatedly atrocity crimes, which is even more salient given that this year marks the 30-year anniversary of the Srebrenica genocide, as well as the ratification of the peace negotiated at Dayton.
