Deputy Speakers of the House of Peoples and the House of Representatives of the Parliamentary Assembly of BiH Safet Softić and Šefik Džaferović talked with the delegation from Palestine

Deputy Speakers of the House of Peoples and the House of Representatives of the Parliamentary Assembly of Bosnia and Herzegovina, Safet Softić and Šefik Džaferović, met today with the delegation from Palestine, composed of Dr Ahmed Majdalani, one of the closest associates of the President Mahmoud Abbas and former Minister of Labour and Minister without Portfolio, and Abdel Aziz Abed Daye, Chairman of the Board of Directors of the Palestine Investment Bank.

It was emphasized during the meeting that the relations between Bosnia and Herzegovina and Palestine are very good, but that certainly more must be done for better economic and cultural integrations. In that sense, the interlocutors expressed hope for opening of a wider space for investments, which could enter BiH through the Palestine Investment Bank.

During a discussion on the current situation in Palestine, Mr. Softić and Mr. Džaferović restated full support for the Israeli-Palestinian problem in the so-called principle of the "Two States", which, as it was said, has created the basis for stable peace and prosperity of the Palestinian people.
