SARAJEVO, October 14 (FENA) - The European Union donated two triage containers and two vital signs monitors to the Clinical Center of the University of Sarajevo (KCUS).

This is only part of the assistance that the EU provides to Bosnia and Herzegovina to help fight against the coronavirus pandemic.

The handover of the equipment took place at the Clinical Center, and the project implementer is UNDP.

Head of the Section for Operations for Justice, Home Affairs and Public Administration Reform of the EU Delegation to BiH, Nicolas Bizel, who symbolically handed over the donation, told reporters that this is a continuation of assistance, completing a donation of ten triage containers to the University Clinical Center, that is, only part of the European Union’s assistance to Bosnia and Herzegovina in the fight against the coronavirus pandemic, worth a total of seven million euros, which has been delivered across the country since the beginning of March.

“In total, since the beginning of the pandemic, the European Union has donated equipment worth 628.000 KM to KCUS, and the total donation for health institutions in the Sarajevo Canton is around 930.000 KM,” Bizel stated.

He also said that two vital signs monitors would be handed over to the General Hospital in Sarajevo during the day, and that one donation would be remitted to the health center.

Bisel announced the continuation of the delivery of medical equipment to the health sector in BiH in the coming weeks.

Since the consequences of the pandemic are not only health but also economic in nature, the European Union will be available to Bosnia and Herzegovina with macro aid of 250 million and with 73 million to help the economy, announced Bizel.
