Authorities supported most of the civil society's recommendations, presented at today's meeting of the „Citizens for Europe“ Initiative with the decision makers in BiH, on the theme „Faster to Europe through the reform of the energy and environment sector“. Participants were addressed by the EUSR in BiH, Valentin Inzko, under whose auspices the initiative is taking place. His message was that today the citizens are calling on the authorities to talk to them, given that citizens are „frustrated and disappointed in their leaders who are unable to come up with a solution“. Inzko emphasised that the EU supports this initiative, as well as its recommendations, and that they are not much different from those that the political parties supported prior to the latest parliamentary elections.
