The European Commission (EC) has recommended the initiation of European Union (EU) accession negotiations with Bosnia and Herzegovina. In a statement released by the Commission, it was highlighted that Bosnia and Herzegovina has achieved the necessary level of alignment with EU membership criteria, based on the progress made since 2022, the year in which the country was granted candidate status.
The Commission’s statement read, “Consequently, the Commission recommends to the Council to open accession negotiations with Bosnia and Herzegovina.”
This recommendation marks a significant step forward in Bosnia and Herzegovina’s path towards EU integration, reflecting the country’s efforts to meet the standards and regulations required for membership in the union. The decision now rests with the EU Council to move forward with the negotiation process.
