The Chief of Monitoring team for implementation of visa free regime Bakir Dautbašić said for Fena that B&H has had a reduction of fake asylum seekers last year, which was confirmed at the meeting on 17 December in Brussels.
According to him, B&H is the only country that marks a negative trend for last year, which is a recognition but also a commitment for the Monitoring team and B&H Ministry of Security to continue operating in this regard.
“B&H is the only one that records a trend of minus 7%. Unfortunately, other countries of Western Balkans have recorded an increase”, said Dautbašić.
Dautbašić stated that safety clauses of great warning are introduced to all the countries of the Western Balkans: “We should not allow cases in which citizens of our country seek fake asylum”.
“We recall the situation with Germany, Sweden, Belgium and Switzerland when we had an increase in the numbers of fake asylum seekers. The monitoring team managed to react on time and to decrease these numbers. Although we are not 100% satisfied, because in Germany we have more than 2.000 fake asylum seekers on an annual basis and we want to reduce this number” said Dautbašić.
According to him, the security clause is not a big problem for now for B&H.
