SUBJECT: HIGH REPRESENTATIVE SCHWARZ-SCHILLING SPEAKS 
BEFORE UNSC ON BOSNIA 
 
Classified By: Ambassador John R. Bolton, Reasons 1.4 (b) and (d). 
 
1.  (C) Summary: In a UNSC meeting on Bosnia and Herzegovina 
on April 18, High Representative Christian Schwarz-Schilling 
said it was time for Bosnia and Herzegovina (Bosnia) to 
fulfill the vision outlined in the Dayton Agreement of 1995. 
As a consequence of this progress, Schwarz-Schilling will 
devote this year to winding down the Office of the High 
Representative's (OHR) responsibilities so they can be taken 
over in 2007 by an EU Special Representative Office.  He 
advised the international community to resist "temptations to 
intervene" in Bosnia, recommending local authorities "take 
ownership" of a new democracy moving toward Euro-Atlantic 
integration and rule of law.  The High Rep also called 
repeatedly for Bosnia's parliament to pass before the October 
elections a package on constitutional reform that was agreed 
to by Bosnian political leaders on March 18.  He also 
appealed for full ICTY cooperation, including the handing 
over of Mladic and Karadzic to the Hague.  The High Rep ended 
his briefing with a call for the UNSC to become directly 
involved in resolving the police dispute by setting up a body 
to review cases of Bosnian police officers protesting 
decertification by the International Police Task Force (IPTF) 
in 2002.  In connection with this recommendation, he offered 
to send an expert to New York to work with the UN.  He also 
opined that the Venice Commission findings should be the 
basis for discussion of the police issue.  Prime Minister 
Terzic, who was also present and spoke, reinforced the High 
Rep's calls both for greater ownership in Bosnia and for UNSC 
action on police decertification.  End Summary. 
 
Schwarz-Schilling Ownership Needed for Bosnia, Police 
Decertification a Problem 
 
2.  (C) Delivering a strong address, High Representative 
Christian Schwarz-Schilling called the present time "crucial 
for Bosnia because the period of post-war reconstruction was 
coming to an end."  The High Rep's responsibility is to bring 
that period to a close and steer Bosnia toward a 
Euro-Atlantic future.  A key task for OHR is to oversee its 
own demise and the establishment of an EU Special 
Representative Office, bringing an end to the Bonn Powers. 
The High Rep hoped these goals could be accomplished by the 
first or second quarter of 2007.  To do so, "ownership" is 
needed by Bosnia so it could "assume full responsibility as a 
democracy."  The international community had to resist 
temptations to intervene, even when it seemed that 
"short-term gains" could be realized.  "Continued 
intervention is not consistent with an independent and 
sovereign Bosnia," he asserted. 
 
3.  (C) The High Rep outlined what he saw as the three 
priorities for Bosnia in 2007:  constitutional reform, 
October's general elections and Stabilization and Association 
Agreement (SAA) negotiations with the EU.  On constitutional 
reform, Schwarz-Schilling called for Bosnia's parliament to 
pass a reform package that political leaders had agreed to in 
March after month-long negotiations.  He said a parliamentary 
decision to pass the package would send the right message to 
Europe and the entire international community.    Serious 
progress was needed on the economy and education and, it was 
also necessary to do away with restrictive visa regimes that 
could hamper that progress.  On another matter, remaining 
ICTY issues needed to be resolved or Bosnia would not be able 
to take the next steps toward Euro-Atlantic integration.  The 
High Rep also noted he was instituting "a parallel system" to 
gradually do away with bans imposed by previous High Reps 
under the Bonn Powers, except for those related to ICTY 
cooperation. 
 
4.  (C) Turning to police decertification, the High Rep said 
he wanted to see the issue resolved before the end of OHR's 
mandate, adding that he "fully supported the Bosnian 
government."  The High Rep said he "had the support of the 
EU" and asserted the problem should be resolved 
"constructively and to the credit of the Security Council," 
and offered to send experts to New York to work alongside EU 
representatives and the Secretariat to set up a body to 
review disputed cases.  "We should not at the same time 
preach rule of law and responsibility for ownership and 
ignore this issue," he charged.  The High Rep revisited this 
issue at the end of the meeting, following a request by 
Slovakia for more specifics on his thinking, saying he 
believed the issue needed to be resolved as "part of the 
international community phasing out its role in Bosnia." 
"The Bosnian government is under great pressure from the 
media, human rights organizations and the decertified police 
themselves to do something," he added.  IPTF decertification 
had been an important and largely successful exercise, but, a 
lack of corrective action now would vindicate voices in 
 
 
Bosnia that argued the IPTF's actions had been wrong in the 
first place.  The Venice Commission's findings were "not 
legally binding, but provided good scope for discussion." 
 
Terzic: Reinforces the Message on IPTF Decertification 
 
5.  (C) Speaking next, Prime Minister Terzic said he was 
pleased to address the Security Council at the same time as 
the "new and certainly last High Representative," asserting 
the job of continuity now rested with the Prime Minister. 
Bosnia had achieved the goal of signing an SAA through 
surviving tough reforms, he stressed, arguing that Bosnia's 
experience made it a successful model for other post-conflict 
areas.  The key to Bosnia's success had been "the unified 
voice of the international community joined by the local 
people."  The Prime Minister then raised police 
decertification, calling it "the main reason for his address 
before the UNSC."  He noted that of 598 decertified 
former-police officers, all were banned for life from further 
work in law enforcement and for 150 of them the right to 
challenge their decertification was withheld "because the 
decision was taken on the last day of the IPTF mandate." 
Terzic explained that he had raised this issue in the past 
with the UN's Mark Malloch Brown and U/SYG Guehenno.  Terzic 
stressed that he believed only the Security Council could 
offer a solution and noted that Permanent Representative 
Prica had sent a letter to the Council President requesting a 
review of options.  The Prime Minister ended with a request 
for immediate action to "preserve the principles of the UN 
Charter of Human Rights." 
 
EU Statement 
 
6.  (C) Speaking on behalf of the EU, Austrian Permanent 
Representative Pfanzelter noted that the European Police 
Commission (EUPM) had provided useful advice and support to 
Bosnia on police reform, but additional support from the 
international community was needed. He also echoed the High 
Rep's call for parliamentary passage of  the constitutional 
reform package before October elections.  Pfanzelter also 
encouraged Bosnia's authorities to take necessary steps to 
complete SAA negotiations, including on ICTY cooperation. 
Ten years after the end of the war in Bosnia, it was indeed 
time for more ownership and restriction of the Bonn Powers to 
those related to "ICTY cooperation and Dayton stability." 
Finishing with the subject of police decertification, 
Pfanzelter noted that the PIC Steering Board, at a meeting of 
Political Director's on March 15, had expressed support for a 
limited OHR role if the UN were ready to take the lead.  He 
noted that EUPM should stand ready to provide "limited 
logistical support to the UN, within its existing budget and 
without prejudice to the implementation of its mandate." 
 
Statements By Other Council Members: UK Greece, France, U.S. 
and Russia 
 
7.  (C) The UK urged parliamentary ratification of a 
constitutional reform package and noted any review of the 
Bonn Powers should "reflect the situation on the ground, 
especially ICTY factors" and urged quick progress on police 
reform "before the September deadline."  On police 
decertification, we should review all options and look at the 
outcome of meetings this week between the High Rep and the 
Secretariat.  Greece praised the launching of SAA 
 
SIPDIS 
negotiations, saying a clean break with the past meant Mladic 
and Karadzic in the Hague, which was also necessary for entry 
into NATO's Partnership for Peace.  On police 
decertification, Greece said "real and pragmatic solutions" 
were needed to resolve the problem definitively and hoped 
"OHR could contribute substantively."  France voiced support 
for High Rep Schwarz-Schilling and the need for a consistent 
harmonious approach, and welcomed the role the U.S. is 
playing on constitutional reform. 
 
8.  (C)  In the U.S. statement, Ambassador Bolton agreed with 
others on the importance of constitutional reform and 
stressed the U.S. commitment to help Bosnia achieve the goal 
of signing an SAA by the end of the year.  The U.S. was 
committed to working with other UNSC members to address the 
issue of police decertification.  Russia in its statement 
stressed the importance of continued reform, but, said reform 
needed to keep in mind the interests "of all parties" and 
"progress on constitutional reform and elections was linked." 
 Russia shared the High Rep's concerns on police 
decertification and was willing to review the issue, but, any 
solution had to "be in line with the UN Charter." 
 
Slovakia and Qatar: Support for Bosnian Position on Police 
Decertification 
 
 
9.  (C) Calling on the High Rep to elaborate further on his 
ideas, Slovakia's Permrep focused on police decertification, 
arguing that all should have "due process and the right of 
appeal."  It was important to keep in mind the "sensitivity 
of the situation" and the "credibility of Sarajevo's new 
leadership."  Qatar stated there had been no way to contest 
decisions and the UN should therefore establish a new 
mechanism to review past cases.
