The Bosniak member of Bosnia’s tripartite Presidency congratulated Joe Biden who was sworn in on Wednesday as the 46th President of the United States.

“Dear President Biden, I heartily congratulate you on taking the oath and officially assuming the office of President of the United States. I am absolutely sure that with your experience, democratic capacity and policies that promote freedom, equality and respect for human dignity, you will successfully overcome all the challenges faced by the American nation,” Sefik Dzaferovic said.

“Your inspired address at the inauguration instils hope not only in the great American nation but also in all well-intentioned people around the world that we are facing a period of global stabilization, understanding and renewal of multilateralism as a mechanism to guarantee world progress,” he said.

Dzaferovic called Biden “a great friend” of Bosnia and Herzegovina.

“I am sure that during your mandate, friendly and partnership relations between Bosnia and Herzegovina and the United States will be further strengthened in mutual interest,” he stressed.

“May Dear God help you in your mission,” Dzaferovic concluded.
