Coffman comments on Tudjman request
UN Mission to BiH spokesperson Douglas Coffman commented on Tudjman’s request for a third entity. “Every invitation to form a third entity is irrelevant and unsupported by the Dayton Agreement” said Coffman. “The Mandate of the UN Mission to BiH was to assist implementation of the Dayton Agreement, and the Dayton Agreement foresees two entities and three constitutive nations in the BiH.”
