BiH House of Peoples Speaker Dragan Čović said Wednesday after two days of meetings with EU officials in Brussels that if BiH achieves significant progress in changing its election law, the country can count on EU candidate status in May.
“During all the talks I emphasised that we made significant steps forward, the realistic dynamic is that we inform the EU on the progress we achieved by the end of February so that we can by the end of March agree on a new Election Law,” Covic said.
However, he added that he told EU officials that there will probably be an effort by some, “especially from Sarajevo”, who do not want any progress regarding this issue and want to maintain the status quo.
