A two-part referendum was held in Republika Srpska on 15 and 16 May 1993. [1] Voters were asked whether they approved of the Vance-Owen Peace Plan, and whether Republika Srpska should be able to join another country.

Although President Radovan Karadžić had signed the Vance-Owen Peace Plan on 30 April, it was rejected by the National Assembly on 6 May, [2] and subsequently referred to a referendum. [3] It was subsequently rejected by 97% of voters, [4] whilst the proposal to allow the territory to join other countries was approved by a similar percentage.

Mediators referred to the referendum as a "sham". [2]
