The Plan of the Contact Group and the Politics of Alija Izetbegović in 1994

Summary/Abstract: During the months of April and May 1994, on the initiative of the Russian Federation, diplomatic activity of World Powers arose which subsequently formed the Contact group. The aim of this action was to find a political solution in Bosnia and Herzegovina, and after the signing of the Washington agreement and the creation of the Bosniak-Croat Federation of Bosnia and Herzegovina, so that this group soon presented its peace plan. The basis was formed by the territorial organization of Bosnia and Herzegovina into two entities, which remained as an unchanged principle during the negotiations in Dayton, so that the Plan of the Contact Group is considered the foundation of the present organization of Bosnia and Herzegovina. The Bosniak and Croat side accepted this Plan, while the Serb side rejected it. Even if he did not consider this solution to be a good one, Alija Izetbegović was ready to sign it, partly because of exhaustion of the Bosnian and Herzegovinian side, and partly because it was supported by the allies Republic of Croatia and Turkey. His activities were directed into two paths, to attempt the use of military and political pressure in order to influence the Serb side to accept the agreement, that is to have the Bosnian and Herzegovinan diplomacy influence the International community to apply pressure on Slobodan Milošević and the regime from Pale so that they would give a positive answer to the suggested peace plan.
