He was welcomed at the Centre, which was founded by the City of Sarajevo, by the Mayor of Sarajevo Abdulah Skaka.
Ambassador Wigemark said that the foundation of the Centre is an important initiative that will contribute to the preservation of the truth about what happened in BiH, and that its existence is, therefore, important for the whole country.
Wigemark said that the institutions of the European Union, as well as the EU member states, are continually providing support to the efforts of BiH institutions to establish the rule of law and further develop the judiciary. In that regard, the ambassador expressed his pleasure with the fact that one of the mandates of the Centre is cooperation with legal institutions, individuals and civil society in BiH.
After the meeting ended, Ambassador Wigemark had a tour of the premises of the ICS at the City Hall, including the original courtroom of the ICTY, and wrote in the book of impressions that the truth is necessary for reconciliation and future of BiH.
