FENA Press release

SARAJEVO, September 5 (FENA) - Chairman of the Presidency of Bosnia and Herzegovina Bakir Izetbegović received today credentials from the newly appointed Ambassador of Great Britain and Northern Ireland to BiH Matthews Field, and on this occasion the two officials emphasized the close and long-lasting relations between the two countries.

Field stressed the continuous support of the friendly United Kingdom in the process of European and NATO integration of Bosnia and Herzegovina, as well as the crucial role of the British-German initiative in launching the reform processes and accelerating the EU integration.

Chairman Izetbegović expressed belief that Brexit will not affect the bilateral relations of the two countries, and that the United Kingdom will continue to strongly support BiH on its path towards the EU and NATO.

The two confirmed the ongoing support to single out the areas under the Stabilization and Association Agreement with the EU, which BiH and Great Britain could negotiate on and which could be the subject of bilateral agreements between the two countries.

Izetbegović and Field also discussed the need to abolish or simplify the visa regime for BiH citizens, which would encourage greater exchange of people and increase the volume of goods exchange.

The interlocutors also discussed the London Summit on the Western Balkans, held in July this year, which confirmed the greater engagement of Great Britain on the development of BiH and the region.

Chairman of the Presidency Bakir Izetbegović wished success to the newly appointed ambassador Field, who is seen as a sincere friend of this country and is well acquainted with the situation in the region, stated the BiH Presidency.
