British peacekeepers begin Bosnia pull-out |
2007-03-22 |
![]() The pull-out of the entire British contingent of 600 troops in Bosnia was announced last month as part of the European UnionÂ’s plans to cut its number of EUFOR peacekeepers in the country to 2,500 from 6,500. EUFOR, which took over from a NATO peacekeeping mission in 2004, is charged with carrying out military tasks set out in the Dayton peace accords that ended the Bosnian war in 1995. The majority of the British contingent has been based in Banja Luka, the administrative centre of BosniaÂ’s Serb entity, Republika Srpska. |
