Based on relevant literature and primary sources the author observes how the processes of change influence the dissolution of the Socialist Federative Republic of Yugoslavia. In the first phase the American administration placed global geopolitical interests above the principles of democracy, human rights and the will of the people, defending the unity of Yugoslavia. However, under the influence of military and political events in the SFRY, the actions of the American diplomacy turned from the initial policy of commitment to preserve a unified Yugoslav state towards a dedication for a democratic process of disassociation. In the focus of the author’s work is the relation of the American administration towards the future of Bosnia and Herzegovina, whose independence was particularly advocated in the final stages by Warren Zimermann, the US ambassador to the SFRY.
