MOSTAR – Croatian Prime Minister Andrej Plenković announced continued support for Bosnia and Herzegovina on its European path and the achievement of equality of the three constituent peoples, as published on the Croatian Prime Minister’s X profile after meeting with HDZ BiH leader Dragan Čović.

 “We continue a regular dialogue and excellent cooperation with Dragan Čović. After opening accession negotiations with the EU, the priority is to ensure political stability in BiH and accelerate the implementation of reforms,” the statement said. It emphasized that the Government of the Republic of Croatia supports Bosnia and Herzegovina on its European path and “advocates for the equality of the three constituent peoples.”

Čović’s office also reported on this meeting, stating that efforts are being made to ensure an internal political dialogue in the Federation of Bosnia and Herzegovina entity and at the BiH level, which would lead to accelerating reform processes on the European path.

The statement notes that Plenković and Čović expressed satisfaction with the strong bilateral relations.

“It is important that BiH, with the support of all partners, especially the Republic of Croatia, continues on the path of progress, stability, and EU integration,” stated HDZ BiH.

This week, the ruling Croatian, Bosniak, and Serbian parties at the state level reached an agreement on the state budget, thus preventing the breakup of the coalition. Its adoption is a condition for BiH to be able to use funds from the EU Growth Plan.

At the end of March this year, the European Council approved the opening of negotiations with BiH, but did not set a date for their start. (July 3, 2024.)
