Eye on Bosnia, 15 years later
On Feb. 9, at New York University’s Kimmel Center for Student Life on Washington Square South, former President Bill Clinton gave remarks, above, at the Clinton Foundation’s panel discussion “America at a Crossroads: The Dayton Accords and the Beginning of 21st Century Diplomacy.” Below, ABC News anchor Christiane Amanpour interviewed Bakir Izetbegovic, left, the Bosniak member of the presidency of Bosnia and Herzegovina. Signed in December 1995, the Dayton Accords was the general peace agreement putting an end to the three-and-a-half-year-long war in Bosnia. Other panelists on Feb. 9 included Madeline Albright, former U.S. secretary of state; former General Wesley Clark; Ivo Josipovic, president of the Republic of Croatia; and Catherine Ashton, European Union high representative.
