The leader of the Croat Democratic Union (HDZ BiH), Dragan Covic, said, after a meeting with Oliver Varhelyi, EU’s Commissioner for Neighborhood and Enlargement, that he had a "pleasant conversation with friends," and the topics were questions concerning the 14 priorities of the European Commission and changes to the BiH Election Law, which is "crucial for Croats in Bosnia and Herzegovina."

Covic reiterated his position that “the Croat people don’t have their own representative” in the BiH Presidency because “the Bosniak people elected two for themselves.” He stated that the message is clear, if BiH wants to get EU candidate status, “we must do everything by ourselves because no one will do it for us.”

The HDZ BiH leader said that in the coming period BiH officials should work on improving relations, especially in the Federation of BiH entity (FBiH), i.e. “to improve trust between Bosniaks and Croats.”

In the end, Covic once again underlined the importance of changes to the BiH Election Law.

“We must have an agreement on how to implement the election result while respecting the decision of the Constitutional Court. We adopted only part of the amendments to the Election Law in Parliament. Bosniak politicians want to keep the status quo, and I don't see what that achieves. I think that this is the path to Bih’s destruction,” Dragan Covic said.

The EU Enlargement Commissioner Oliver Varhelyi invited the political leaders of the ruling coalition (Dragan Covic from the Croat Democratic Union – HDZ, Milorad Dodik from the Alliance of Independent Social Democrats – SNSD and Bakir Izetbegovic from the Democratic Action Party – SDA) in Bosnia to separate meetings in Brussels on Wednesday.
