Inzko meets Ban Ki-moon

High Representative, Valentin Inzko, met with the UN Secretary General to brief him on the situation on the ground in Bosnia and Herzegovina. “The International Community is duty bound to help the forces of positive change in Bosnia and Herzegovina to seize the opportunity provided by the recent EU initiative, to kick start the reform process in Bosnia and Herzegovina”, High Representative told UN Secretary General Ban Ki-moon in New York on Wednesday. “Governments are now in place at the State and Entity levels and there is no time to lose to start delivering concrete results that will create new job opportunities, improve the functionality of institutions and advance the Rule of Law.”

Full respect for the Peace Agreement not only remains obligatory for all the authorities in Bosnia and Herzegovina, but it also provides the stability that is necessary to advance the challenging reform agenda facing Bosnia and Herzegovina in the period ahead.
