In late 1995, he backed NATO air strikes on Bosnian Serb forces, which led to an increase in UN-sponsored peacekeeping forces on the ground and the signing of the Dayton Peace Agreement. 4. In 2000, Clinton secured a NATO Stabilization Force (SFOR) to monitor and enforce the terms of the Dayton Peace Agreement. 5.

1. In 1995, President Bill Clinton used air power to halt the Serb campaign of ethnic cleansing. U.S.-led air strikes forced the Bosnian Serbs to agree to a peace plan that was negotiated in Dayton, Ohio. 2. President Clinton supported the 1995 Dayton Peace Accords, which ended the war and established a multi-ethnic Bosnian state comprising two entities—the Muslim-Croat Federation and the Republika Srpska. 3. Subsequently, President Clinton sent 20,000 US troops as part of a NATO-led peacekeeping force in Bosnia. The US troops made sure that the Dayton Agreement was enforced and both sides adhered to it. 4. In 1998, President Clinton signed the Stabilization Force (SFOR) agreement with NATO, which provided for the continued deployment of a multinational peacekeeping force in Bosnia. This allowed for better security and economic stability in the region. 5. In 1999, President Clinton traveled to Sarajevo to help commemorate the fourth anniversary of the Dayton Peace Accords.
