The only lasting solution to the conflict is not military, but political, and it must be based on a peace plan acceptable to all parties. A comprehensive settlement plan now exists; it is that of the European Union. This plan, which so far has not been accepted by all the parties, is once more being discussed. Its provisions are not immutable. They can be modified to allow for qualitative adjustments to make the future predominantly Muslim republic economically viable. It is important that the Government of Bosnia and Herzegovina now make its demands in this connection clearly known.”

We are pleased to say that we share this same objective. Nevertheless, we believe that such consideration should in no way call into question the decisions of the North Atlantic Council, which should be implemented fully. May I again make it abundantly clear that the purpose of my Government is to revive the diplomatic process and encourage the search for a negotiated political solution. The Council will have noted that the members of NATO, by taking the decisions to which I have just referred, have been acting very clearly in pursuit of a logic of peace.”

  46. “Moreover, my Government considers that in contacting NATO the Secretary-General was acting within his authority and in accordance with Security Council resolutions. The measures set out in the decisions taken by the North Atlantic Council should make it possible to raise the Sarajevo siege within 10 days. My Government obviously will be very pleased at any action taken by the parties which will lead to the conclusion of a cease-fire and to the neutralization of heavy weapons on a voluntary basis within the timed allowed. In this connection, we welcome the negotiations that have begun in Sarajevo under the aegis of the Special Representative of the Secretary- General and the Commander of the United Nations Protection Force (UNPROFOR) in Bosnia and Herzegovina.”

  47. “Boutros-Ghali's request to authorize the Commander- in-Chief of Allied Forces in Southern Europe to launch air strikes against artillery positions from which attacks on civilian targets in Sarajevo originated. I will spare the Council a lengthy exegisis and simply say that, for my Government, the North Atlantic Council decisions I have just summarized are squarely within the framework of Security Council resolutions 824 (1993) and 836 (1993) with respect to safe areas. Indeed, the lifting of the siege from those areas - Sarajevo in particular - is the purpose of those resolutions, which, inter alia, authorized UNPROFOR to use force, including air power, in fulfilling its mandate. Hence, there is no need for these decisions of the North Atlantic Council to be submitted to the Security Council for any further decision.”

  48. “Essentially, it is that the heavy weapons of the Bosnian Serb forces within a radius of 20 kilometres from the centre of Sarajevo shall be withdrawn or regrouped and placed under UNPROFOR control within 10 days. The North Atlantic Council also called upon the Government of Bosnia and Herzegovina to place its heavy weapons within the operational area under UNPROFOR control within the same time frame. We welcome its having agreed to do so. To ensure the implementation of these measures, the members of NATO decided that heavy weapons remaining within the operational area at the end of the stated time and not under the control of UNPROFOR would be subject - no matter which side they belonged to - to air strikes carried out in close coordination with the Secretary-General of the United Nations. The members of NATO also agreed to Mr.”

The decisions of the North Atlantic Council respond also to proposals made by the United States and by France with a view to ending the siege of the city and achieving the withdrawal or supervision of the heavy weapons that represent a constant threat to the city. What did the North Atlantic Council decide?”

  50. “We also want, by giving the United Nations Protection Force (UNPROFOR) control of heavy weapons, to begin the demilitarization of Sarajevo and to move towards placing the city under provisional United Nations administration as contemplated in the European Union plan of action. I would recall that this peace plan is the basis for the political solution we seek. We hope that the entire international community will be able to endorse the efforts of the European Union and that the Union's objectives can be the object of a common strategy by the international community, including - which is very important - the Russian Federation. In that connection, we welcome the positions taken by the Government of the United States. As I have just said, we wish first of all to lift the siege of Sarajevo, and we hope we are on the right track.”
