“There are 10 benchmarks. The third benchmark I just referred to: An effective judicial reform program being in place. The fourth benchmark--again, this is for civil implementation, now, of Dayton. This is not our military mission. I want to be real clear, I read our military mission before. I read our military tasks before. This is the civil implementation side of Dayton. 4. Illegal pre-Dayton institutions . . . are dissolved . . . And they specify which ones they are talking about. And I would be happy to give you a list. There are four of them: and revenue and disbursement mechanisms under control of legitimately elected officials. 5. Media are regulated in accordance with democratic standards; independent/alternative media are available throughout [Bosnia]. 6. Elections are conducted in accordance with democratic standards, and results are implemented. 7. Free-market reforms (e.g. functioning privatization and banking laws) and an IMF program are in place, with formal barriers to inter-entity commerce eliminated. 8. A phased and orderly minority return process is functioning, with Sarajevo, Mostar, and Banja Luka having accepted significant returns. 9. In Brcko, the multi-ethnic administration functioning and a secure environment for returns is established. 10. The Parties are cooperating with [the International Criminal Tribunal] in the arrest and prosecution of war criminals. Those are the 10.”
