Kutiljerov mirovni plan za Bosnu i Hercegovinu
Cutilieiro’s Peace Plan for Bosnia and Herzegovina

Summary/Abstract: The European Community attempted to find a peaceful solution for Bosnia and Herzegovina and offer a peace plan that would satisfy the 'three sides' (SDA, SDS and HDZ) in Bosnia and Herzegovina, excluding the legal and legitimate decision-making organs of the state of Bosnia and Herzegovina, the Assembly, the Presidency and the Government of Bosnia and Herzegovina. The peace mediation led by José Cutillero, an European envoy who offered a peace plan that was more like a European draft proposal and a statement of principles for a new constitutional order of BiH, which got accepted as the basis for further negotiations. The proposed peace plan lacked important elements such as agreed and accepted constitutional principles, demarcation folders, transitional arrangements, whilst many things had been agreed, but not signed. The Cutillero's mission reached its peak in Brussels on 7 and 8 March 1992, via the European working proposal for future constitutional structure of BiH. The positive side of the plan is that it offered a chance as possible a peaceful solution, while its downside was its foundation in ethnic criteria as a basis for future peace negotiations and cantonization as a model of the B-H internal structure.
