Delegation of Bosnia and Herzegovina headed by Chairman of the Council of Ministers of BiH Denis Zvizdic met with Cyril Muller, Vice President of the World Bank for Europe and Central Asia, in Washington.

They stressed the importance for the economic development of building infrastructure, especially transport, energy, utilities and digital, as well as increasing the quality of funds for small and medium-sized enterprises in order to increase their productivity and create jobs, and in order to prevent young people leaving the country.
