Speaker of the House of Representatives of the Parliamentary Assembly of Bosnia and Herzegovina (PABiH) Borjana Krišto and Speaker of the House of Peoples of the PA BiH Bariša Čolak talked today with the non-resident Ambassador of Mexico for Bosnia and Herzegovina Marco Antonio Garcia Blanco.

During the meeting it was stated that the relations between Bosnia and Herzegovina and Mexico are good and friendly, but there have been no concrete initiatives to improve cooperation so far.

In this regard, Ambassador Garcia Blanco briefed the Speakers of the previous meetings he held with representatives of the institutions in Bosnia and Herzegovina in charge of the economy, and said that a number of Memoranda and Protocols related to cooperation in this area were being prepared.

Speaker of the House of Representatives Borjana Krišto said that this visit comes at a time when political relations in BiH are very complex, emphasizing that the complexity of relations between political actors push us away from the current most important issues, such as the amendment of the BiH Constitution and the BiH Election Law, as well as the possibility to make a step forward when it comes to certain issues such as socio-economic reforms.

The Speaker of the House of Peoples Bariša Čolak thanked the Ambassador for his visit, informed him about the political situation in BiH, the country's aspirations to European and Euro-Atlantic integration, as the common commitment of all political actors on this issue, at least declaratively, and the challenges the country faces on its path towards the EU.

The meeting was concluded with the presentation of the candidacy of Mexican Senator in the elections for President of the Inter-Parliamentary Union, to be held in mid-October in St. Petersburg ", announced the Office of the Speaker of the House of Peoples, Bariša Čolak  (End)
