Yugoslavia (Serbia and Montenegro) to enhance the effectiveness of the closure
of the international border between the Federal Republic of Yugoslavia (Serbia
and Montenegro) and the Republic of Bosnia and Herzegovina with respect to all
goods except foodstuffs, medical supplies and clothing for essential
humanitarian needs,
