National Assembly Speaker Slavica Djukic Dejanovic was pleased that a government had been formed at the level of Bosnia and Herzegovina and congratulated Zlatko Lagumdzija on being appointed Minister of Foreign Affairs.

Discussing the bilateral relations between Serbia and Bosnia and Herzegovina, the officials noted some positive developments, but added that there was still room for improvement, particularly on the parliamentary level. Parliamentary diplomacy, and in that context, parliamentary cooperation between Serbia and Bosnia and Herzegovina, can have a significant positive influence on both countries’ executive authorities’ efforts on promoting the existing relations and addressing numerous issues.
