The news of the detention of individuals by the BiH Authorities is serious, but it is evidence that BiH is a capable partner in the international fight against terrorism. The proper authorities in BiH are investigating this matter, and are co-ordinating with representatives of the International security forces present in BiH.
This investigation, launched by the FBiH Ministry of Interior, is still ongoing and we must ensure that it is in no way hampered. Any speculation, in particular from those unconnected to the investigation, as to either the motives or the background of the individuals detained today would be utterly irresponsible.
Terrorism is a global threat, but BiH is showing that it is capable of joining the international fight against it.
