Question to the Foreign, Commonwealth & Development Office:

To ask His Majesty's Government what steps they have taken to support (1) Operation Althea, and (2) the NATO headquarters in Sarajevo, under the Dayton Peace Agreement.

We see both the European Union Force (EUFOR) and NATO as vital for maintaining peace and security in Bosnia and Herzegovina (BiH), and work closely with our international partners to achieve these goals. We continue to support EUFOR's role in upholding the military aspects of the Dayton Peace Agreement, and engage regularly with EUFOR and the EU Delegation in BiH. We are supporting defence reform and BiH's capacity to counter cyber threats and disinformation. We also support security in BiH through our bilateral contributions, including deploying staff officers to NATO HQ Sarajevo and our programme of defence engagement delivered to BiH's Armed Forces.
