Ginkel and AAFS representatives meet with BiH Presidency members: Southern Interconnection an opportunity for both BiH and the US

(Patria) - Members of the BiH Presidency today received the US Embassy Chargé d'Affaires John Ginkel and a delegation from the company AAFS, the investor in the Southern Gas Interconnection.

The US Embassy stated that the Southern Interconnection project is gaining momentum.

Chargé d'Affaires John Ginkel joined the members of the BiH Presidency today in discussions with AAFS Infrastructure and Energy LLC President Joseph Flynn and Vice President Jesse Binnall regarding the further progress of this key project.

The discussion focused on the Federation of BiH's progress towards finalizing amendments to the Southern Interconnection Law and continuing work on the international agreement with Croatia.

The gas pipeline will ensure access to reliable American liquefied natural gas. American investments and expertise are ready to turn this vision into reality, strengthening BiH's energy independence and creating lasting economic opportunities for both our countries.

Members of the BiH Presidency were informed about the project in the context of construction timelines,
pipeline capacity, the legal procedures that must be followed to commence project implementation, and the project's benefits for employment and strengthening the economy and industry, as well as improving energy security and attracting foreign investment.

Members of the BiH Presidency confirmed that there is political consensus for the Southern
Interconnection project, which will enable the enhancement of cooperation between Bosnia and Herzegovina and the United States of America and a long-term partnership.
