- Sutorina
The village of Sutorina and surrounding territory, including a short stretch of the
Adriatic coast was named after the little vale of the river Sutorina. Since the breakup ofYugoslavia , the territory has been disputed betweenBosnia-Herzegovina andMontenegro .The Bosnian side of the dispute is that:
The only possible former Bosnian exit to open sea in length of 7
kilometers on the west side of the entrance to theBoka Kotorska , gained in1947 by the former Yugoslav republic ofMontenegro . On all maps until May 1947, Sutorina is part of Bosnia-Herzegovina. Sutorina, together with 5 Bosnian villages (Igalo ,Sutorina ,Sušćepan ,Prijev andRatiševina ) subsequently was removed from all maps of Bosnia-Herzegovina and connected toMontenegro on maps, in a disputed manner allegedly byĐuro Pucar andAvdo Humo representing Bosnia-Herzegovina andBlažo Jovanović representing Montenegro who made a deal with the permission ofJosip Broz Tito andVladimir Bakarić .Sutorina is near the town of
Trebinje in southeastern Srpska, part of Bosnia-Herzegovina.The only valid borders between former Socialist Federal Republic of Yugoslavia republics are borders from the 2nd
AVNOJ meeting in1943 Fact|date=September 2008.Now Bosnia-Herzegovina wants back its second and only possible exit to the open sea. Bosnia-Herzegovina currently only has access to the open sea across
