The European Commission is organizing a donor conference, to be held on July 16 in Brussels, to raise additional funds for post-flood reconstruction in Serbia and BiH.
“The EU and its Member States stand in solidarity with the people affected by the recent extreme floods in Southeast Europe. We are ready to use all available instruments to help the citizens of Serbia and Bosnia and Herzegovina recover from this natural disaster. The conference will mobilise funding much needed for the countries’ recovery,” Commissioner for Enlargement and European Neighbourhood Policy Štefan Füle said. He also called upon donors to contribute generously to the two countries’ recovery efforts.
