Statement by Renzo Daviddi, Chargé d’affaires a.i. of the EU Delegation to Bosnia and Herzegovina

“Recent statements of the RS leadership, questioning even its interest to the European future of BiH, is utterly disturbing and disappointing since the very same leadership undertook clear obligations and timelines less than two months ago with the road map agreed in the presence of the most senior EU officials in Brussels.

Equally, comments which call into question the EU commitment to BiH citizens’ European future are ungrounded. The EU is and remains committed to BiH’s European perspective and that of the whole Western Balkans. Recent progress in the EU accession process of some of BiH neighbours speaks more than rhetorical statements.

The EU reiterates its commitment to the territorial integrity of Bosnia and Herzegovina as a sovereign and united country. It will not be possible for any entity to have its own parallel EU track or separate coordination with the EU. As well known, Bosnia and Herzegovina‘s EU integration is one process for one country speaking with one voice.”
