RS's expensive loan requires citizen reaction

US Ambassador to BiH Eric Nelson told the citizens of RS to demand accountability for the expensive loan that RS took through the London Stock Exchange.

- The IMF's offer of 750 million euros is still on the table; instead, Republika Srpska chose, with a low degree of transparency, to sell bonds on the London Stock Exchange. The difference in interest alone is 60 million euros compared to the IMF's terms, which taxpayers will have to pay. The question is why, and people should think about that and demand accountability," Nelson pointed out.

He pointed out that the conditions of the International Monetary Fund (IMF) are not conditions, but incentives for reforms in BiH that will benefit citizens and the economy.

Currently, the Unified Register of Accounts of Natural Persons is a practical necessity and should not be a political issue. It is a database that helps in the fight against money laundering, corruption, and terrorist financing, said the Ambassador of the United States of America to Bosnia and Herzegovina, Eric Nelson, in an interview with the CAPITAL portal.
