Abstract
As we have seen, concurrently with its attempt to negotiate a comprehensive settlement the EC also tried to broker a ceasefire in Croatia. In October 1991 the mediation effort was joined by the UN. Finally, in February 1992, with the UN playing the principal mediatory role, the negotiations produced an agreement and the ceasefire took effect.
