MFA of BiH: Withdrawal of the UK from EU will not affect our mutual relations

FENA Press release

SARAJEVO, January 31 (FENA) - On March 29, 2017, the United Kingdom of Great Britain and Northern Ireland officially announced its intention to withdraw from the European Union, in accordance with Article 50 of the Treaty on European Union.

In this regard, the Ministry of Foreign Affairs of Bosnia and Herzegovina has received notifications from the United Kingdom Embassy as well as from the Delegation of the European Union to Bosnia and Herzegovina that the United Kingdom and the European Union have reached an official withdrawal agreement signed in London on 24 January 2020.

It will enter into force on 31 January 2020, at midnight (Central European Time). The United Kingdom of Great Britain and Northern Ireland will no longer be a full EU Member State from that point on.

All international agreements between Bosnia and Herzegovina and the European Union will continue to apply to contractual relations between Bosnia and Herzegovina and the United Kingdom, until the end of the transitional period, namely until 31 December 2020.

Furthermore, the legal status of citizens of Bosnia and Herzegovina residing in the United Kingdom also remains the same after the country leaves the European Union.

The competent institutions of Bosnia and Herzegovina will, in the coming period, take the necessary steps to legally regulate relations between Bosnia and Herzegovina and the United Kingdom, which have so far been regulated by international treaties between Bosnia and Herzegovina and the European Union.

The withdrawal of the United Kingdom from the European Union will not affect the extremely good and friendly relations between our two countries, as well as the continuation of very important support provided by the United Kingdom to the international aspirations of Bosnia and Herzegovina, stated the Ministry of Public Relations of BiH.
