Croatia’s Foreign Minister Gordan Grlić Radman warned on Monday that unitarism and separatism in Bosnia and Herzegovina were causing instability and that it was crucial to abide by the principle of equality of the constituent peoples.
“Unitarism and separatism have been growing stronger in Bosnia and Herzegovina, causing instability to increase. The solution is respect for the principle of equality of the constituent peoples. The reform of electoral legislation is a key strategic issue and we need urgent progress on that,” the minister said ahead of a meeting of EU ministers of foreign affairs, with Western Balkans being one of the topics on the agenda.
Grlić Radman said that the situation in the Western Balkans was worsening and that divisions were deepening.
“Enlargement policy is the solution, we need a strong political approach, that is the only way to move forward,” he added.
He expressed concern about developments in Western Balkan countries, underlining the importance of preserving their territorial integrity and democracy, Hina reports.
