SARAJEVO: The new prime minister of Serbia travelled to Bosnia yesterday, pledging to respect borders and rebuild ties that remain tense nearly two decades after the devastating conflict that tore the region apart.
“I arrived for a visit to Sarajevo and Bosnia-Hercegovina as a friend, as someone who represents a country that respects the territorial integrity of Bosnia,” Serbian Prime Minister Aleksandar Vucic told reporters after meeting his Bosnian counterpart Vjekoslav Bevanda.
Serbia wants to “establish trust and ties that will be incomparably better in future with all Bosnian citizens. And I also expect that people of Bosnia wish to build the same relations of trust,” he said. “There is no need for a big love, but I believe that respect should exist,” he added.
