		According to the Bosnian delegation's American legal adviser, former State Department official Paul Williams, the NATO-led international peacekeeping force in Bosnia "would neither interact with indicted war criminals nor tolerate their presence in the area of operation.
		Expectations that the Dayton agreement would produce a breakthrough on apprehension of indicted war criminals were dashed almost immediately by the United States, Dayton's chief sponsor.
		From the signing of the Dayton agreement in December 1995 until the summer of 1997, NATO avoided active measures to apprehend indicted war criminals.

		Dayton has kept the guns silent and Bosnia intact, and the work of rebuilding, uneven as it is, is moving forward.
		But unlike the old regime, they recognize that the only road forward runs through Dayton, that Srpska cannot prosper in isolation and that there is room within the Dayton framework to fulfill their legitimate aspirations.

		The three main leaders who signed the Dayton Peace Agreements are no longer in power-one has died, one has been overthrown in a peaceful revolution, and one, the man who joins us today, as he did three weeks ago in Sarajevo, Alija Izetbegovic, has taken honorable retirement from the Presidency of Bosnia.
		Dayton can and should be improved - not by reopening it, but by bolstering it with agreements like last year's New York Declaration.
		Dayton must be implemented in its most broadly based and ambitious interpretation, We must work together In fact, I believe we should consider a proposal I first made here five years ago, and hold annual review conferences to strengthen and adjust Dayton, to assess progress and establish a common way forward.

		The Dayton Accords, negotiated at Wright-Patterson Air Force Base in Dayton, Ohio, in November 1995, ended the war in the former Yugoslavia, established the current political divisions in the region, and provided for international oversight and implementation of the peace plan.
		But the Dayton Accords were meant to end the war, and to allow this country to regain its footing, to stand on its own feet again, and to allow people to live in peace together, and the Dayton Accords have succeeded.
		But certainly, all of us who were present at Dayton as I was, 10 years ago, and all of us who believe in the Dayton Accords have always understood, both here in Europe and in the United States of America, that the Dayton Accords needed to evolve.

		DAYTON, Ohio -- When U.S. envoy Richard Holbrooke accepted a 1998 honorary degree from the University of Dayton for his role in negotiating an end to the war in Bosnia-Herzegovina, he challenged the Dayton community to establish an annual award honoring a peacemaker.
		The Dayton Peace Prize will be given to an individual or organization contributing significantly to the reconstruction of a country or countries following the re-establishment of peace, according to R. Bruce Hitchner, chair of the Dayton Peace Accords Project and director of UD's Center for International Programs.
		Although it's been five years since the Serbs, Croatians and Bosnians came to Dayton to negotiate an agreement to end the war in Bosnia, the people of Dayton have not forgotten their role in the making of the historic treaty and in the struggle to keep peace alive in the Balkans, according to Hitchner.

		The Egyptian position, he said, focused on the importance of an independent Bosnia and Herzegovina, where human rights were respected; the return of refugees to their homeland was safeguarded; and those who had perpetrated war crimes were brought to trial.
		It was of particular importance that the International Tribunal separated its activities from present political circumstances, and that the practice of handing in indictees was ended, as that was not within the mandate of the Stabilization Force.
		Faithful implementation of the Dayton Accords was central to durable peace in Bosnia and Herzegovina as a united, sovereign and independent State.

	A Feminist Appraisal of the Dayton Peace Accords
		A close examination of the Dayton Peace Accords leaves one with the impression that the responsibility for addressing past violations of human rights is being given to the international community, through both intergovernmental and nongovemment organisations.
		The general references in the Accords to the necessity to work toward rehabilitation and reintegration have not proved sufficient to encourage either the national government or the Entities to address the situation of the victims, including the women who were raped and sexually assaulted.
		It is not clear that the Accords or the negotiations leadiiag to the Accords gave sufficient attention to the importance of putting in place a mecimnism which would allow for an in depth discussion of the legacy of the war.

	Bosnia-Hercegovina Update: Non-Compliance with the Dayton Accords
		The Dayton peace agreement, which brought an end to the fighting in Bosnia, emphasized the right of displaced persons and refugees to return to their homes and the right of minorities to security and freedom from discrimination.
		Regrettably, however, the signing of the Dayton agreement did not bring an end to the forced displacement or harassment based on ethnic criteria of the civilian population.
		Although a fundamental right guaranteed by the Dayton agreement, return to their homes in Bosnia and Hercegovina has been nearly impossible for those wishing to return to an area where the majority of current residents are from another ethnic group.

		However, according to a senior Senate Democratic source, Dayton had a conversation with Senate minority leader Harry Reid within the past week in which Reid made it clear that if rumors of Dayton's disenchantment with campaigning and fundraising and Washington were true, he should make the decision now for the good of the party.
		Dayton staffers have denied that a conversation with Reid had anything to do with the decision.
		Dayton spent $12 million of his own money to run and win in 2000, similar to Sen. Jon Corzine, who could hardly wait to jump out of the Senate and back into the New Jersey political swamplands.

		The Dayton Conference attracted the most influential US diplomats working on the Balkans, high dignitaries from various Bosnian factions, the president of Croatia with his fleet of advisers and diplomats and, finally, the Yugoslav politicians--the president of Montenegro, the foreign policy adviser to the president of Yugoslavia, and the representatives of Kosovo Albanians.
		At the Dayton Conference, the most extreme current was represented by a Bosnian Muslim politician, Haris Silajdzic, who demanded that the two entities composing Bosnia today (Muslim-Croat Federation and Republika Srpska) be abolished, to effect a “unitarization” of this country.
		Nevertheless, the Dayton Conference ended with recommendations for the new US administration that were compiled by a group of non-governmental organizations which did not come from the region in question.

	Review of the Dayton Accords
		Two very high political prices have been paid for the brand of peace represented in the Dayton accords: 1) it sets a very dangerous example by legitimizing the achievements of sectarian violence; 2) it sidelines the UN in favor of NATO as the central tool of international conflict resolution.
		The accords postpone the problem for 180 days by prohibiting the import of mines, heavy weapons or their ammunition, military aircraft or helicopters.
		Parties should instead be required to agree to further Treaty Limited Equipment (TLE) restrictions including, for example, all self-propelled or towed weaponry, further rounds of reductions of TLE year on year, a moratorium on the introduction of new weapon types, and prior notification of all weapon acquisitions.
