SARAJEVO, January 31 (FENA) - Member of the Presidency of Bosnia and Herzegovina Šefik Džaferović congratulated Archbishop Tomo Vukšić on his appointment as Archbishop of the Vrhbosna Archdiocese and expressed gratitude to Cardinal Vinko Puljić.
I extend my most sincere congratulations to the Archbishop of Vrhbosna, Tomo Vukšić, on his taking over as the head of the Vrhbosna Archdiocese.
The Catholic Church in Bosnia and Herzegovina has been an indispensable part of the religious mosaic of Bosnia and Herzegovina and its role is of irreplaceable importance when it comes to not only the religious but also the entire social life.
Having in mind the previous activities of Archbishop Vukšić as one of the leaders of the Catholic pastoral activities in BiH, I believe that he will continue with his exceptional role in promoting peace, trust and coexistence.
I take this opportunity to thank Cardinal Vinko Puljić for his longstanding service and immeasurable contribution to the state of Bosnia and Herzegovina, peace and harmony among the peoples of our country," wrote Džaferović in his congratulatory message.
