Sarajevo

    • 2003, Hillary Rodham Clinton, “War Zones”, in Living History[3], →ISBN, →OCLC, page 344:
      I had planned a stop in Sarajevo to meet with a multiethnic delegation to hear their ideas about what the United States government and private organizations could do to help heal a society ripped apart by war. The security situation forced me to cancel my trip to Sarajevo, but the people I was to meet were so disappointed that they insisted on braving the journey along fifty miles of treacherous roads to meet me in Tuzla.
  2. A canton of Bosnia and Herzegovina.
