Presidents of Bosnia, Croatia, Serbia to sign cooperation accord

Herzegovina, Nov 6, SPA -- The presidents of
Bosnia-Herzegovina, Croatia and Serbia-Montenegro were to
sign an agreement Monday on strengthening cooperation
between the former Balkan foes.
The leaders were meeting in Sarajevo, a gathering
organized in part to coincide with the 10th anniversary of
the war's end.
Those attending the meeting included the Bosnian Muslim
member of Bosnia's presidential troika, Sulejman Tihic,
Croatian President Stipe Mesic and Serbia-Montenegro
President Svetozar Marovic.
They discussed relations 10 years after the end of
Bosnia's 1992-95 war.
Monday's agreement states that future relations between
the countries should be based on mutual respect of
sovereignty and internal affairs. It also includes a pledge
to improve cooperation.
The document is meant to build on the 1995 peace accords
signed in Dayton, Ohio, that ended Bosnia's war.
