On November 3, 2021, the UN Security Council extended the European Union-led stabilization forces’ mandate in Bosnia and Herzegovina for another year in resolution 2604 (2021) (to be issued as document S/RES/2604(2021) [3]). According to a UN press release [4], the resolution mandates UN member states to establish the multinational stabilization force, EUFOR-Althea, for a further twelve months. EUFOR-Althea will help to implement military aspects of the Dayton Peace Agreement [5] signed in 1995. The Council also extended its authorization to allow NATO to keep its headquarters in the country for an additional twelve months.
