Sarajevo – Slovenian President Nataša Pirc Musar initiated a three-day working visit to Bosnia and Herzegovina on Thursday, beginning with a discussion with BiH Council of Ministers Chair Borjana Krišto. During their conversation, she conveyed Slovenia’s backing for BiH’s Euro-Atlantic aspirations.
She highlighted Slovenia’s encouragement for implementing essential reforms to facilitate this progress. As noted on the X network, she identified BiH as a significant economic partner for Slovenia in the region and a key country in Slovenian development cooperation.
Following this, she reaffirmed Slovenia’s dedication to regional stability during a meeting with the High Representative of the International Community in BiH Christian Schmidt in Sarajevo.
On Friday, at the invitation of BiH Presidency member Denis Bećirović, she will attend the main memorial ceremony commemorating the 30th anniversary of the Srebrenica genocide at the memorial center in Potočari, where over 8,000 Bosniaks were killed by Bosnian Serb forces shortly after the seizure of this UN-protected area on July 11, 1995.
The visit will wrap up on Saturday at the Butmir military base in Sarajevo, where she plans to meet with Slovenian Armed Forces personnel on missions in BiH and engage with NATO and EUFOR commanders. (July 10)
