Following meetings in New York, the United Nations and the North Atlantic Treaty Organization have reached a series of understandings concerning the use of NATO airpower in Bosnia and Herzegovina in support of the relevant UN Security Council resolutions.
Following meetings in New York, the United Nations and the North Atlantic Treaty Organization have reached a series of understandings concerning the use of NATO airpower in Bosnia and Herzegovina in support of the relevant UN Security Council resolutions.
Based on these understandings, which have been transmitted to UNPROFOR and to NATO Military Authorities, NATO air strikes will be conducted on a timely basis. While general warning may be given to an offending party, tactical warning of impending air strikes, in principle, will not. Under normal circumstances, several targets, where possible three or four, will be authorized for each air strike, which will be carried out by NATO in close coordination with UNPROFOR.
"Dual-key" arrangements remain in effect, ensuring that decisions on targeting and execution will be taken jointly by UN and NATO military commanders. The principle of proportionality in response to a violation will continue to be respected, as will the need to avoid unacceptable casualties.
The two Secretaries General confirm once again the excellent co-operation of the two organizations in the implementation of the relevant UN Security Council resolutions. They reaffirm their conviction that the prospect of the effective use of airpower, under the authority of the Security Council and in accordance with the relevant NAC decisions, should deter attacks against UNPROFOR and violations of Security Council resolutions.
