European Union Police Mission

European Union Police Mission is the police force which replaced SFOR[?] as the international peace-keeping force in Bosnia-Herzegovina.

It is the first such mission undertaken by the European Union.

The choice of the name is a little unfortunate, as its acronym EUPM pronounced in Bosnian sounds exactly like a common shortened version of a frequently used local profane uttering.
