Bosnia has denied any secret shipment of arms to Iraq. In an official statement, Bosnia-Herzegovina's Defense Minister Nikola Radovanovic, termed the claims as unfounded and that weapons delivery to the country was legal. He also said that all of the 200,000 guns had ended up with the new Iraqi government and their security forces.
Amnesty International has said hat Bosnia had sold some 200,000 small arms to Iraq in a secret and non-transparent fashion, and that part of the shipment had not ended up with Iraqi security forces as intended.
