DRŽAVNI ORGANI NADLEŽNI ZA VOĐENJE VANJSKE POLITIKE BOSNE I HERCEGOVINE
STATE AUTHORITIES RESPONSIBLE FOR FOREIGN POLICY OF BOSNIA AND HERZEGOVINA

Summary/Abstract: With the end of the Cold War and the disintegration of the SFRY, the states that emerged on its territory, including Bosnia and Herzegovina, began to redefine their foreign policy. From the point of view of international law, we can certainly consider Bosnia and Herzegovina as an internationally recognized state, which cooperates in international, ie bilateral, regional and global frameworks, and regulates contractual and other relations, with states and international organizations. In federal states, as a rule, foreign policy is entrusted to central authorities, as is the case in Bosnia and Herzegovina, where the authority to conduct foreign policy is given primarily to the Presidency of Bosnia and Herzegovina, as a joint body of Bosnia and Herzegovina. Today's era in many countries brings a number of innovations in terms of conducting foreign policy and the competencies themselves, but Bosnia and Herzegovina has a number of specifics here as well. It is a time when states should fight for the best possible integration, with the most stable way of preserving national sovereignty and state subjectivity in general. In Bosnia and Herzegovina, practically both the state and the entities have their own foreign policy, despite the fact that there are state bodies at the level of Bosnia and Herzegovina that are responsible for its management. In circumstances where participation in international relations is set as an imperative, Bosnia and Herzegovina allows for internal conflicts caused by the distribution of power, which are maintained on the very conduct of foreign policy. The paper analyzes the state bodies of Bosnia and Herzegovina responsible for conducting foreign policy with an indication of the specifics that exist in this regard and a review of the foreign policy of Bosnia and Herzegovina.
