1. “In conclusion, I would like to emphasize that Bosnia and Herzegovina remains committed to investigating, prosecuting and punishing all persons responsible for war crimes. We will continue to work on strengthening the national judicial system. More justice means more trust and stability.”

2. “We would like to highlight our appreciation for the support of the European Union, the Organization for Security and Cooperation in Europe and the United Nations Development Programme with regard to strengthening the human and material resources of the judicial institutions that are processing war crimes and general capacity-building. Bosnia and Herzegovina reiterates the importance of the consistent cooperation among the Prosecutors' Offices and the relevant authorities of Bosnia and Herzegovina and its neighbouring countries, Croatia and Serbia, in accordance with the principles of international justice and the rule of law, which is crucial to investigating and prosecuting war crimes.”

3. “Throughout the years, the cooperation of Bosnia and Herzegovina with the ICTY and its successor has been steadfast and full, as evidenced by the Tribunal's reports. In the same vein, we remain committed to contributing actively to the Mechanism's efforts to accomplish its mission. Accountable, independent and impartial judicial institutions that enjoy public trust throughout the entire country are a precondition not only for bringing perpetrators to justice, but also for achieving reconciliation among the three constituent peoples of Bosnia and Herzegovina, namely, Bosniaks, Croats and Serbs. That is of crucial importance for long-term stability in the country and the region. We recognize that there is a need for the adoption of a revised national war crimes strategy for Bosnia and Herzegovina.”

4. “At the outset, let me congratulate you, Mr. President, on assuming the presidency of the Security Council for the month of December. I would also like to thank Judge Agius and Mr. Brammertz, the President and the Prosecutor of the International Residual Mechanism for Criminal Tribunals, for their respective reports and for today's comprehensive briefings. We note the continued progress by the Mechanism in fulfilling the residual activities of the International Tribunal for the Former Yugoslavia (ICTY). In addition, we would like to underline that the successful conclusion of the Mechanism's mandate in an efficient manner and within a reasonable time frame is of crucial importance for justice and reconciliation in Bosnia and Herzegovina and the region.”
