The Bosnia and Herzegovina (Sanctions) (EU Exit) Regulations 2020

These Regulations are made under the Sanctions and Anti-Money Laundering Act 2018 (c.13) to establish a sanctions regime for the purposes of promoting respect for the sovereignty, territorial integrity, international personality and constitutional order of Bosnia and Herzegovina; promoting the peace, stability and security of Bosnia and Herzegovina; and encouraging compliance with and the implementation of The General Framework Agreement for Peace in Bosnia and Herzegovina (“the GFAP”). Following the UK’s withdrawal from the European Union, these Regulations replace the EU sanctions regime concerning restrictive measures in view of the situation in Bosnia and Herzegovina, implemented via EU Council Decision 2011/173/CFSP of 21st March 2011.
