Magazinović received Vuksanović-Stanković: BiH and Montenegro as a bulwark of European values

(Patria) - Saša Magazinović, head of the SDP BiH caucus in the Parliament of BiH, received Draginja Vuksanović Stanković, a member of parliament from the Social Democratic Party of Montenegro and candidate for President of Montenegro.

During the meeting, officials discussed the successful parliamentary cooperation to date and mutual support in international institutions. Magazinović particularly highlighted satisfaction that Montenegro, following Bosnia and Herzegovina, has also initiated activities on the legalization of cannabis for medical purposes, thanks precisely to Adnan Striković and Draginja Vuksanović Stanković, who are the proposers of the Law on the Legalization of Cannabis Oil for Medical Purposes.

During the conversation, Magazinović and Vuksanović Stanković devoted significant attention to the political situation in the region, discussing the need for cooperation in the fight to stop the return of whitewashed radical policies from the war-torn 1990s. The interlocutors believe that the principles of mutual respect, equality, justice, and solidarity are more necessary in the region today than ever before.

Magazinović emphasized that in times when politics lacks a greater number of those who show courage, fearlessness, and responsibility in defending civilizational values in the Balkans, Draginja Vuksanović Stanković represents a shining example, not only as a person who does this but also as one who inspires and motivates others to overcome their fears and be part of progressive processes.

Draginja Vuksanović Stanković pointed out that European values and principles in our region have been called into question and that today Bosnia and Herzegovina and Montenegro are the bulwark defending those values. She stressed that the denial of genocide and the glorification of war criminals must be prosecuted by the judiciary.

Also, the meeting confirmed mutual satisfaction with the relations between the two countries, which, as noted, have no open issues. The officials also highlighted the importance of further strengthening friendly relations between Bosnia and Herzegovina and Montenegro.
