SARAJEVO, November 15 (FENA) - Ambassador of the Federal Republic of Germany to Bosnia and Herzegovina Margret Uebber visited today the Federal News Agency (FENA).

After the meeting with FENA General Manager Elmir Huremović, the Ambassador stated that she was extremely pleased to have had the opportunity to visit FENA, noting that this helped her gain a better insight into the functioning of the media outlets in Bosnia and Herzegovina.

“We talked about the role of the media, and at the same time touched upon the issues of media freedoms, especially given that media freedom and freedom of expression are of great importance to us, and these topics are part of a number of projects implemented by the German Embassy in BiH,” said Uebber.

She pointed out that during the first few months of her stay in BiH, she realized that the media often focused on things that are not functioning well in this country, and said that there were many things in BiH that could serve as good examples which is why she would like the media to pay more attention to presenting positive examples.

FENA General Manager Elmir Huremović noted that the ambassador's visit was one in a series of diplomatic visits in the past few months.

“We are pleased that the representatives of the international community in Bosnia and Herzegovina recognize us as a credible and indispensable media partner” added Huremović.

The meeting with Ambassador Webber was an opportunity to present everything that has been done so far to improve FENA’s overall news portfolio, especially when it comes to FENA’s video content and its presence on social networks.

Huremović also noted that the meeting was a chance to discuss the plans for the coming period, as well as the importance of objective and impartial informing and that FENA plays highly important role in this regard.

“We have informed the ambassador about the preparations for the conference of the European Alliance of News Agencies, which we will host in early April next year in Sarajevo, and of course we also discussed the models of cooperation between FENA and the German Embassy in BiH,” concluded Huremović.
