A letter received from the Secretary-General Boutros Boutros-Ghali on 9 June 1995 included proposals from France, the Netherlands and United Kingdom to strengthen UNPROFOR by the creation of a rapid reaction force within it.[2] The rapid reaction force would form an integral part of the existing peacekeeping operation and that UNPROFOR would remain impartial.[3] The Council was concerned by the continuing armed hostilities in Bosnia and Herzegovina and that a further ceasefire was not agreed.
