Will war come again to Bosnia-Herzegovina? | DW Documentary
Will Bosnia-Herzegovina soon be at war again? Almost three decades after the end of the Bosnian war, the country is a new EU candidate. But the situation here is more fragile than ever. Who will prevail in multi-ethnic but divided Bosnia?
In December 2022, some three million Bosnians received hopeful news: after years of waiting, the small multi-ethnic Balkan state is finally an EU candidate. However, peace in the Western Balkans is more fragile than at any time since the end of the Bosnian War in 1995, which left 100,000 dead and hundreds of thousands displaced.
Might Putin be trying to open a second front in the divided country? Why is Bosnia so central to so many geopolitical desires – both in the West (EU, UK, USA) and in places like Russia, Serbia, China and Turkey? And why is the country still suffering from the complex legacy of the 1995 Dayton Peace Agreement?
Interviews with the main players then and now unravel the secessionist aspirations of the Bosnian Serbs, the influence of EU member Croatia on the country and Bosnia’s structures of corruption. Bosnia-Herzegovina is the land of three peoples: Bosniaks, Serbs and Croats. It’s a meeting point of the Muslim, Orthodox, Christian and Jewish worlds. And it’s a place that shows that while it is difficult to end a war, it’s even more difficult to make a lasting peace.

Human can't leave in peach together 😢
4:30 – 4:34
😂 srbs take part in marching for peace.
Švabama ponovo treba rat na Balkanu kako bi zavladali. Neće biti rata i neće kopati.
When Nato, The united States and Germany leave us alone, then there wont be any war! But if u keep putting ur nose in our business and mess things up as u did with us in the 90s and other countries, then of course there will be war
The whole point of this video is that DW and governments of Western European countries don’t like Milorad Dodik. Okay, it means the guy is doing something right!
The U.K used to be part of the E.U but the head of state could not be a Roman Catholic.
Of course, this is discriminatory but the U.K was allowed to join the E.U at the time.
Germany did 4 genocides on Balkan so far ,1914 -1941-1991-1995-1999 following his age-old dream regardless of human sacrifices Drang nach Osten – you need to stop that joint criminal enterprise
The other problem in Bosnia and Herzegovina is that it is a clash of civilisations. The only way that country can continue long term is to reorganise that everyone in the country has full political and cultural rights. This isn't the case now and its causing problems in the country. All three main ethnic groups want very different things.
If you look at a map of the region it's obvious that Bosnia used to be a part of Croatia.
Before the Ottoman Turkish invasion of Bosnia in 1463 AD there were no muslims living in Bosnia and no Serbs ( Vlach) either.
A governement elected on ethnical basis wont lead a country anywhere…Look at Africa and see.
Keep talking about this and keep exposing Serbian warmongering, propaganda and attempts to break our country apart
I am a Filipino citizen, I was 15 years old when I watched and heard about the war in this beautiful country Bosnia and Herzegovina. It was gross and unimaginable.
Please, I don't want to see another war.
Learn from the past, learn what is diversity means and apply into your community.
Peace shall prevail in all our hearts.
Its very simple to understand why always is war in Ballkan
.Its because of ottoman islamisation of Bosnia and some Albanians…..Till we get rid of Islam in Albania 🇦🇱 and Bosnia it's never gonna be peace in Ballkan….Islam doesn't belong in Ballkan region or Europe. That's the only reason otherwise if we all go back to Christian ✝️ there will be peace
No it will not, thanks for visiting and farewell!
Mi smo nova mlada generacija. Mi širimo ljubav, sreću i toleranciju. Prevazišli smo varvarizam i seljakluk i primitivizam. Jedino šta trebamo iskorijeniti jeste primitivne i zaostale stavove. Ljubav je potpis svih nas mladih u Bosni.
yes, there will be a new war
I find the criticism, in this comment section, of DW and their coverage a bit odd and delusional.I am not sure if those criticizing DW do not want a light shown on extremist views because they are afraid of criticism from the west that would interfere with their extreme agenda or if they believe that calling attention to extremism and hate will make it worse.🤔
I just don't get it. If those people don't want to live together why pressure them to do so? Why not allow democratic referendum under supervission of international comunity, on which they can express their opinion – whether they want to live together or they want to separate. And allow those communities that want to separate to go on their own way. Democracy in action. And the task of international community would be to implement results of that referendum, and to suppress anyone who would dare to try changing will of the people by military means.
Hoće,ako se Englezi počnu vrtiti po državi.
What propaganda!
Leave the Serbs alone!!!
No muslims in europe!
Just leave us alone! Unsubscribed!
For once keep your hands off
Ivana looks like an Angle
Why is every documentary about Bosnia biased towards the muslim side??? They only want to keep the state of Bosnia alive because if the Croats and Serbs leave and join their mother countries they would be the weakest poorest country in the region.
My father was in the army and at the beginning of the war we rebelled against Serbia and Croatia without any modern weaponry, the truth is that the blue helmets were a toy of the French, German and English, the only ones who gave the nooses to defend themselves were the Pakistani brothers. 12 people 4 women and two children were killed in my family. Srebrenica is on the mind of the French who withheld the information that Srebrenica was attacked for 5 days because Miteran said he did not want an Islamic state in Europe. More than 700 Bosnian children are missing without a trace, thanks to the Canadian army, which after some time was taken to Canada, where are our Bosnian children is the question. I hope that my answer will not be censored. But Bosnia is 90 years old and now it's not the same, everyone knows that.
