The president of the Croat National Assembly of Bosnia and Herzegovina, Dragan Covic, on Tuesday thanked Croatian Prime Minister Andrej Plenkovic for his support for and advocacy of the equality of BiH Croats, changing the BiH Electoral Law, and BiH's progress towards EU and NATO.

Covic sent Plenkovic a letter after a Zagreb conference on the 25th anniversary of the Dayton peace agreement, underlining Plenkovic's important role.

He also thanked him for the “well-intentioned and friendly activities and all that has been unselfishly done” for BiH, notably for the “firm stand” on the political equality of Croats as one of the three constituent peoples.

Covic described Plenkovic as a “recognised ally” of Croats in BiH and BiH as a state.

He echoed Plenkovic's opinion that changing the Electoral Law was key for the normal functioning of BiH in future, saying that Croats in BiH would achieve full constitutionality once they exercised their right to a free and independent election of their political representatives in bodies “intended for the legitimate representation of the constituent peoples.”
