Leaders from BiH and other Western Balkans countries on Tuesday adopted a plan for a regional common economic market at an EU-supported summit in Sofia.
The plan envisages a set of measures like reducing cross-border bank charges, removing technical trade barriers, coordinating investment policies, recognising professional qualifications across the region and promoting e-commerce.
“The declaration for a joint regional market is of great importance for the 20 million people living in the Balkan countries. It will help the economic prosperity of the countries and will keep the people in this region,” Bulgarian Prime Minister Boyko Borissov told a press conference.
