ENGLISH: BOSNIA ONLY HALFWAY TO EU

SARAJEVO, Bosnia (May 13,2008) - The U.S. Ambassador to Bosnia Charles English says that Bosnia is only halfway to EU membership, and that a lot of political compromise is still required.

“If Bosnia wants to have a real chance of joining NATO or the EU, its political leaders have to do a lot more. They can’t fritter away three years on bitter debates over every reform or waste their energy on narrow ethnic interests,“ Ambassador English said.
