The topics of the meeting were also the issue of amendments to the BiH Election Law, as well as the upcoming general elections. The collocutors also discussed the situation in the media and public services.

The BiH Presidency members emphasized the important role of the OSCE in BiH and expressed their gratitude for the contribution and assistance to BiH, especially in fulfilling its international obligations, as well as in the election process, defense and security reforms.
