At the meeting, they also discussed preparations for the Digital Summit of the Western Balkans, which will be held in Sarajevo in October 2023, as part of the Berlin Process and the Action Plan for a common regional market for the Western Balkans, following the decision of the Council of Ministers that Bosnia and Herzegovina will be the host country, stated the Council of Ministers of Bosnia and Herzegovina.
