Upholding the Dayton Peace Agreement Through Sanctions Act
HR 4149 requires the U.S. President to submit biannually a list of foreign individuals or entities undermining Bosnia and Herzegovina's stability, such as those forming illegal parallel institutions or obstructing the Dayton Peace Agreement. It mandates sanctions including asset freezes and visa bans for listed persons, with exceptions for humanitarian aid and national security. The bill specifically targets actions threatening Bosnia's territorial integrity, like those by Republika Srpska officials, and urges EU coordination to sanction figures like Milorad Dodik. Sanctions apply to individuals, their family members (unless they condemn the actions), and entities facilitating transactions for them. The law expires seven years after enactment.
