The main goals of the initiative -- which was introduced in Sarajevo in the summer of 1999 -- were not much different from previous conflict prevention ideas for the region, but the Stability Pact offered a promising new dimension -- economic development and regional co-operation.
Glavni ciljevi inicijative - predstavljene u Sarajevu u ljeto 1999. - nisu se bitno razlikovali od ranijih ideja za prevenciju sukoba u regiji, no Pakt o stabilnosti ponudio je obećavajuću novu dimenziju - gospodarski razvoj i regionalnu suradnju.
