What is Bosnia and Herzegovina's postion on Demining?
546588
There is a lot of details at the site below,\n\nFrom http://www.mineaction.org/country.asp?c=4 :\n\nMore than 10,000 sites are currently affected by mines throughout Bosnia and Herzegovina (BiH).  Although mine clearance has been under way since the cessation of the war in 1995, current trends indicate it will be decades before the threat of landmines and unexploded ordnance (UXO) can be fully removed from the country. A particular problem in achieving mine-clearance targets has been declining donor funds. At the same time, the BiH government has been unable to generate sufficient resources to finance annual mine action targets set by the BiH demining strategy. The situation affects all elements of society, but particularly those returning to mine-affected areas and who are dependent on their land for livelihood. \n\n\nNational Plan for meeting Mine-Ban Treaty obligations as prepared for the Review Conference in 2004  is available \nas a word documnent at the following location.\n\nhttp://www.mineaction.org/doc.asp?d=376

The "government" in the occupied areas of Cyprus is illegal. The Turkish army is legally responsible of that area. You can take Turkey to the European Court of Human Rights. If you are a foreigner this should be a lesson not to be in the occupied areas of Cyprus in the first place. The area is under military occupation and you should not expect them to have the rule of law.

It's all done on paper.  However a country has the right to demand the gold if it so desires.  But that is unlikely.

I'm in Peja, Albanian (pronounced : payer) or Pec, Serbian (pron : petch). Its in the western part of Kosovo near the border of Montenegro. I'm working with the United Nations. I don't think its weird though - just a bit behind the rest of Europe.

No.  \n\nYou know, couldn't we monitor this with a satellite that's tuned into the the temperature of humans?  Humans are pretty much always 98.6, and if they're not, then they won't get far.\n\nAnd as for the fence, it is supposed to be fancy.  It will be like three walls, one of which is going to be concrete and about 13 feet high, from what I've heard.  It may not stop them but it will sure slow them down.  The trick is putting it in the right places.\n\nAs as for landmines, this is out of the question.  But what about landmines that only broadcast that they've been stepped on, and the weight that was exerted on them (so we can tell the difference between a rabbit and a human)?\n\nAlso, regarding those citizens that want to get involved, we should all independently investigate companies to look for those that employ illegals.  This should seriously increase enforcement.

Because the UN/US isn't interested in the African people other than as slave labour to mine the minerals for the corporations. By the 'peacekeepers' doing what they are doing, it will undermine their position leading to riots/demonstrations/protests. Then when these turn ugly, more 'peacekeepers' with 'bigger guns' will be sent to 'resolve the conflict'.

Bosniakophobia is a sentiment of hostility or hatred towards Bosniaks and the concept of multi-cultural and united Bosnia-Herzegovina in its present borders. Its use in the English language has been limited. Bosniakophobia is widespread in Serbia, Montenegro, Bosnia-Herzegovina, and Croatia.\n\nOne of the most notable manifestation of Bosniakophobia is the denial of 1995 Srebrenica Genocide in which Serb forces slaughtered over 8,000 Bosniaks in U.N. designated "safe" enclave of Srebrenica.

Bosnia and Herzegovina (also written Bosnia-Hercegovina) is a mountainous country in the western Balkans. Its capital is Sarajevo and it was formerly one of the six federal units constituting Yugoslavia. The republic gained its independence in the Yugoslav wars of the 1990s and due to the Dayton Accords, it is currently a protectorate of the international community, administered by a High Representative selected by the European Parliament. It is also decentralized and administratively divided into two entities, the Federation of Bosnia and Herzegovina and the Republika Srpska. Bosnia and Herzegovina themselves are historical-geographic regions which today have no political status.

There is more to Bosnia besides the war. Bosnia has an old history and rich traditions. There is much to offer, and people must live for the future now.\nBosnia has beautiful old towns. Stunning scenery. Turkish Mosques. Ivo Andric. Bijelo dugme. Sevdah music. And the best burek hmn!

They are distributed based on where the specific minerals are located.  For example, the diamond industry is located in areas like South Africa where there are large diamond deposits.

I wouldn't count on anything that isn't related to Iraqi having anything done with it by the US.  On the other hand...does Burma have oil?  If the answer is yes, then it is a possibility!

Never. And maybe if we had stuck around in Iraq after the Gulf War instead of counting on the UN inspectors to do their jobs, we could have put out little fires before they became big ones.\n\nSorry for putting "UN" in the same sentence with "do their jobs". It couldn't be helped.

A better question would be to ask why the government of the United States sends the US military into other countries in peacekeeping roles (Bosnia, for example) while the countries in the area - who's own best interests would be served by not having their neighbor self-destruct - do nothing.
