Zvizdić - Pusić: BiH's Euro-Atlantic integration is a common interest

Chairman of the Council of Ministers of BiH Denis Zvizdić received today in Sarajevo the First Deputy Prime Minister and Minister of Foreign and European Affairs of the Republic of Croatia Vesna Pusić, who is on an official visit to our country, writes Patria.

Chairman Zvizdić informed Minister Pusić that the Council of Ministers of BiH is focused on implementing socio-economic reforms with the aim of improving the business climate in BiH, which would facilitate business operations and create new jobs.

He added that the planned reform measures are compatible with the systemic reforms expected from BiH in its European integration process. He emphasized that there is full agreement among all political entities regarding the Euro-Atlantic integration of Bosnia and Herzegovina.

Minister Pusić congratulated Chairman Zvizdić on his appointment and wished him success in his work. She added that BiH's Euro-Atlantic integration is a common interest of both countries and that Croatia will continuously support Bosnia and Herzegovina in its European and NATO aspirations.

Chairman Zvizdić thanked for the congratulations and Croatia's support for BiH's European path. He said that the transfer of experience and legal acquis is of exceptional importance for BiH in order to make the accession process as smooth as possible.

- The accession process itself means entering an era of working and living policies, and that is something that will relax relations within BiH. Our adaptation process lasted 12 years, and we are ready to help you on that path - Pusić said.

Minister Pusić added that the EU expects positive progress in BiH and that it is very important for Bosnia and Herzegovina to demonstrate institutional credibility in the accession process.
