Bosna bit će cijela od ČETIRI DIJELA/ Bosnia will be single comprised of FOUR PARTS

Uskoro nakon potpisivanja Rezolucije Muslimana Hercegovine, osniva se i Vijeće Muslimana. Insistiranje na unitarnoj Republici BiH Vijeća Muslimana, za razliku od stava SDA koji je spreman na kantonizaciju RBiH, kao i mogućnost stvaranja monetarne, carinske i ekonomske unije sa Hrvatskom ukazuje na to da ni kod samih Muslimana ne postoji zajednički stav u pogledu ustavno-pravnog uređenja RBiH.
Sastanku u Međugorju između  predstavnika HDZ-a i SDA održanom 27.08.1992. prisustvovala je delegacija SDA u sastavu: Ćamil Salahović, Ismet Hadžiosmanović i Muhamed Cero. Delegacija SDA imala je ovlaštenje predsjednika predsjedništa Alije Izetbegovića da u njegovo ime vodi razgovore, uradi radne materijale i iste mu ponudi u pitanjima realizacije međudržavnog Ugovora o prijateljstvu i saradnji između Republike Hrvatske i Republike Bosne i Hercegovine.
U zaključcima usvojenim na tom sastanku utvrđeno je da je neophodno nastaviti demokratski dijalog i izražena je zahvalnost Hrvatskoj za sve ono što je učinila u BiH. Međutim, ono što je najbitnije za ovaj sastanak jeste zapravo da su delegacije dogovorile da će BiH biti sastavljena od četiri kantona:
1) Mostarsko-travnički pod Hrvatima; 2) Sarajevsko-zenički pod Muslimanima; 3) Tuzlansko-dobojski pod Muslimanima i Hrvatima i 4) Banjalučko-bihaćki pod Muslimanima i Srbima. Također, dogovoreno je da se HVO uključi u oružane snage RBiH i zadrži autonomiju u komandiranju.
Po sačinjavanju zaključaka, delegacija SDA se vratila u Zagreb i predočila zaključke i prijedlog Aliji Izetbegoviću koji se složio sa prijedlogom i ocijenio ga kao dobru osnovu za dalje pregovore. Sa prijedlogom se složio i Haris Silajdžić, koji je u to vrijeme također bio u Zagrebu na Islamskoj konferenciji koja se održavala u hotelu Intercontinental, koji je predložio da se pokuša ubaciti još jedna konstitutivna jedinica na prostorima srednje Bosne.
Što se tiče hrvatske strane, predsjednik HZ H-B, Mate Boban je oštro kritikovao prijedlog, ali se sa njim složio predsjednik Republike Hrvatske Franjo Tuđman.

Soon after the Resolution of Muslims of Herzegovina had been signed, the Council of Muslims was established. Insisting of the Council of Muslims on unitary Republic of Bosnia and Herzegovina (RBiH), unlike the position of SDA that was prepared to negotiate on "cantonisation" of the RBiH, as well as preparedness of the SDA to further negotiate the possibility of creation of the monetary, customs and economic union with Croatia, is a clear indication that the Muslims themselves were not united in their position on the constitutional and legal establishment of the RBiH.
The meeting between the representatives of the HDZ and SDA in Medjugorje, held on 27/08/1992 was attended by the SDA delegation consisted of: Ćamil Salahović, Ismet Hadžiosmanović i Muhamed Cero. The SDA delegation was authorised by the President of the RBiH Presidency, Alija Izetbegović, to hold negotiations on his behalf and prepare the working material on the issues of implementation of the bilateral Agreement on Friendship and Cooperation between Republic of Croatia (RC) and RBiH.
The conclusions adopted at this meeting expressed a necessity to continue a democratic dialogue and gratitude to Croatia for everything it did in BiH. However, the most important aspect of the meeting was the agreement between the delegations on the future composition of BiH of four cantons: 1) Mostar-Travnik under Croats; 2) Sarajevo-Zenica under Muslims; 3) Tuzla-Doboj under Muslims and Croats and 4) Banja Luka-Bihać under Muslims and Serbs. The inclusion of the HVO (Croat Defense Council) in the structure of the RBiH Armed Forces with the autonomy in command was also agreed.
Following the adoption of the conclusions, the SDA delegation returned to Zagreb to present them to Alija Izetbegović, who agreed in general to the proposals, assessing them as a good basis for the future negotiations, Haris Silajdžić, who was also in Zagreb at the Islam Conference held at the Hotel Intercontinental, also agreed to the proposals, proposing to attempt to create one additional constitutional unit in the area of the Central Bosnia.
As for the Croatian side, a President of the Croat Union Herzeg-Bosnia, Mate Boban, fiercely criticized the proposal, but the proposal was agreed by the President of the RC Franjo Tuđman.

Prvi prijedlog EU za rješenje pitanja ustavnog uređenja tadašnje RBiH (mart, 1992.)/ The first EU proposal for constitutional set-up of a then RBiH (March, 1992)

Prvi prijedlog EU za rješenje pitanja ustavnog uređenja tadašnje Republike Bosne i Hercegovine (tzv. Cutillerov plan) sa mapom prostornog uređenja je razmatran na sastanku 18. marta 1992. u Sarajevu. Na sastanku su prisustvovali predstavnici EU, Alija Izetbegović, Mate Boban i Radovan Karadžić.
Prema Cutillerovom planu, BiH bi bila decentralizovana država koja bi se sastojala od 10 konstitutivnih jedinica - kantona zasnovanih na etničkom principu na osnovu rezultata popisa stanovništva iz 1991.
Ovaj plan nije potpisao Alija Izetbegović po nagovoru Rusmira Mahmutčehajića i Warrena Zimmermanna, tadašnjeg ambasadora SAD u SFRJ. Svoju odluku nikada nije obrazložio.
Prema ovom planu, od ukupno 110 općina, Muslimanima je trebalo pripasti 47 općina, što je uključivalo i najveće industrijske centre poput: Sarajeva, Mostara, Tuzle, Zenice, Doboja, Bihaća, Travnika, Brčkog i Prijedora.

The first EU proposal for constitutional set-up of a then Republic of Bosnia and Herzegovina (the so-called Cutileiro Plan) with a map of territorial establishment was discussed at the meeting held on 18/03/1992 in Sarajevo. The meeting was attended by the EU representatives, Alija Izetbegovic, Mate Boban and Radovan Karadzic.
According to the Cutileiro Plan, BiH would be arranged as a decentralized stated composed of 10 constitutional units - cantons on ethnic principles in line with the results of the 1991 census.
This plan was not signed by A. Izetbegovic, whose decision was influenced by Rusmir Mahmutcehajic and Warren Zimmermann, a then US Ambassador in the

SFRY. Izetbegovic has never elaborated his decision.
According to this plan, out of a total of 110 municipalities, 47 municipalities would go to Muslims, including the largest industrial centres such as;  Sarajevo, Mostar, Tuzla, Zenica, Doboj, Bihac, Travnik, Brcko and Prijedor.

#NeverEndingStory #UvijekIstaPriča (DANAS, 30/06/2005) Mapa Evropske komisije iz 2005/ A map from the European Commission from 2005

Novinarski tim tjednika Danas (30/06/2005)

"Službeni predstavnici Europske komisije koji će umjesto OHR-a uskoro otvoriti Ured EU-a u Sarajevu, po svaku cijenu tražit će da se administrativno-politički preustroj BiH riješi uspostavom pet regija. Zamišljeni koncept novog regionalnog ustroja BiH, službeni Bruxelles spreman je provesti svim političkim i diplomatskim sredstvima, pa čak i svojevrsnim pritiscima koji će biti usmjereni protiv onih političkih struktura koje mu se budu protivile... Projekat pod radnim nazivom "BiH u Europu s pet regija" osmišljen je u Bruxellesu prije četiri godine."

A team of journalists of The Danas (30/06/2005)

"Official representatives of the European Commission replacing OHR soon by opening the EU Office in Sarajevo, are going to request by all means that the administrative and political setup of BiH is resolved through establishment of five separate regions. The projected concept of the new regional setup of BiH, the official Brussels is prepared to implement by all political and diplomatic means, even using the pressure aimed at those political structures opposing it... The Project under the working title :"BiH to Europe with Five Regions" was drafted in Brussels four years ago."
