Ambasador Bosne i Hercegovine predao akreditivna pisma predsjedniku Sjedinjenih Američkih Država


Novoimenovani ambasador Bosne i Hercegovine u Sjedinjenim Američkim Državama Sven Alkalaj predao je 30. juna 2023. godine akreditivna pisma predsjedniku Sjedinjenih Američkih Država Joeu Bidenu, tokom prigodne ceremonije upriličene u Bijeloj kući.

U kraćem razgovoru nakon predaje akreditiva, obostrano je potvrđeno da su bilateralni odnosi dvije zemlje dobri i prijateljski.

Predsjednik Biden zaželio je ambasadoru Alkalaju uspješan mandat i naglasio punu opredijeljenost i spremnost SAD da prijateljskoj Bosni i Hercegovini ostane pouzdan partner u ostvarivanju vanjskopolitičkih ciljeva, dodavši da mu je Bosna i Hercegovina u srcu već dugo godina.

Ambasador Alkalaj potvrdio je da će Ambasada BiH i on lično nastaviti blisko sarađivati sa SAD oko svih pitanja od značaja i interesa za Bosnu i Hercegovinu.

Predsjednik Biden i ambasador Alkalaj dobro se poznaju i sarađuju još iz perioda rata u Bosni i Hercegovini, dok je Biden bio senator iz savezne države Delaware.
