UN Security Council renews authorization of EU-led stabilization force in Bosnia and Herzegovina

United Nations, Nov. 1 -- The UN Security Council on Friday renewed the authorization of an EU-led stabilization force in Bosnia and Herzegovina for another 12 months.

The 15-member council unanimously adopted Resolution 2795, which re-authorizes European union Force Althea (EUFOR ALTHEA) and the NATO presence in Bosnia and Herzegovina for a further period of 12 months, starting from the date of the adoption of the resolution.

EUFOR ALTHEA, a successor to a NATO-led stabilization force, has a mission to ensure continued compliance with the 1995 Dayton Peace Agreement, which put an end to the 1992-1995 Bosnian War.
