French Foreign Minister meets French envoy in BiH

The interlocutors exchanged opinions on the issue of bilateral defense cooperation, current events on the European continent and current events related to the MoD and the Armed Forces of Bosnia and Herzegovina.

Brigadier Desjeux, a military attaché, said it was a great pleasure to visit a country with which the Republic of France has good cooperation.

He noted that it is important to keep up with the process of training members of the AF of BiH in French-speaking African countries to learn the French language in order to facilitate their stay in European Union missions that are active in French-speaking African countries.

In April 2023, the military attach also announced the arrival of a high delegation from the Republic of France in BiH, headed by the deputy director of the General Delegation for International Relations and Strategy of the Ministry of Defense of the Republic of France, Vice Admiral Christophe Lucas.

Despite serious challenges, Bosnia and Herzegovina remains committed to fulfilling its goals on the Euro-Atlantic path, according to Deputy Gali.

As Toudic noted, her visit to the Minister of Finance and Treasury of BiH, accompanied by the economic associate for the Western Balkan region, shows that her country s focus is on economic issues and possible investments in BiH.

Tegeltija stated that there is room for economic cooperation with France in various areas, and it is best to involve the chambers of commerce in BiH, the diplomatic network of both countries and then the line ministries in order to implement concrete projects.

The EU's candidate status and the continuation of reforms in the process of accession to the European Union shows that France gives full support to BiH on its European path, according to the Council of Ministers of BiH.
