You definitely have far more knowledge than I do of this situation so I'm not arguing this specific case, but I think sanctions have their place.
I only recall there being sanctions on arms sales to Bosnia. I don't recall sweeping sanctions that prohibited foreigners from doing business or visiting there.

And if you asked the people of Sebrenica what they thought of those sanctions, I'm sure it would be interesting...
