SARAJEVO, Bosnia (December 6,2007) - The British Ambassador to Bosnia Matthew Rycroft welcomed the initialling of the Stabilisation and Association Agreement between Bosnia and the European Union.“This is a big step forward for Bosnia and its citizens and we are glad that Bosnia can now continue its path towards the EU membership”, Ambassador Rycroft said.
“The next steps will be to sign the Stabilisation and Association Agreement and successfully implement it, and then for it to be ratified by the parliaments of EU member states. This will entirely depend on the progress in the implementation of key reforms such as police and public administration reform, as well as full cooperation with the Tribunal in the Hague. Great Britain fully supports the aspirations of Bosnia for the EU membership. I hope that the political leaders will do all in their power to fulfil the remaining obligations and ensure a prosperous and secure future in the European family for all Bosnian citizens”, Ambassador Rycroft said.
