FENA Press release

SARAJEVO, November 15 (FENA) - Chairman of the Presidency of Bosnia and Herzegovina Bakir Izetbegović received today a delegation of the Bosniak National Council in Serbia.

Apart from President of the Bosniak National Council (BNV) in Serbia, Sulejman Ugljanin, the delegation was comprised of President of the Municipality of Tutin Kenan Hot, President of the Municipality of Sjenica, Hazbo Mujović and Secretary of BNV, Mirza Hajdinović.

The newly elected member of the Presidency of Bosnia and Herzegovina, Šefik Džaferović, also attended the meeting.

Ugljanin informed the hosts about the results of the recently held elections for the Bosniak National Council in Serbia, as well as the overall situation and the position of the Bosniak people in Sandžak and Serbia.

They agreed that Bosniaks in Sandžak, where they make up the majority of the population, are not satisfied with the degree of fulfilment of their rights guaranteed by the Constitution and laws in Serbia.

They particularly stressed the poor economic situation and the lack of investment in Sandžak, as well as the pronounced national imbalance in state institutions, the judiciary, the police and educational institutions, where Bosniaks are not represented to the extent that they should be considering the data from the population census.

Izetbegovic and Džaferović called on Bosniaks in Sandžak to try to achieve as high a degree of political unity as possible, and to articulate and exercise their rights and interests through the activities of the Bosniak National Council.

It was also pointed out that a member of the Presidency of BiH from the Bosniak people, as it was the case in the previous period, will provide all necessary support in exercising and realization of all justified claims regarding the position of the Bosniak people in Sandžak and Serbia, stated BiH Presidency.
