The Head of the EU Delegation to BiH, Johann Sattler, said Monday that BiH should strive to reduce the presence of the international community since the current size of the presence is incompatible with EU membership.

We are in stages where we should strive to gradually reduce this presence,” Sattler said.
Sattler’s comments came at the 11th meeting of the Parliamentary Forum for BIH’s European Integration, which was hosted by the Republika Srpska National Assembly’s Committee for European Integration and Regional Cooperation.
