Serbia, Bosnia-Herzegovina sign veterinary cooperation agreement- helps improve economic relations between the two countries.

Minister of Agriculture, Forestry and Water Management Sasa Dragin and Minister of Foreign Trade and Economic Relations of Bosnia-Herzegovina Mladen Zirojevic signed the Agreement on veterinary cooperation, which will help improve economic relations between the two countries.

A statement by the Ministry of Agriculture reads that the Federation of Bosnia-Herzegovina is one of Serbia's most important foreign trade partners and that the agreement signed gives the legal framework for cooperation in the field of veterinary medicine. Dragin explained that it was necessary that Serbia and Bosnia-Herzegovina sign this agreement in order to remove non-customs barriers, especially for foodstuffs of animal origin.

He specified that this agreement creates conditions for easier and greater trade of foodstuffs of animal origin and improvement of relations between countries members of CEFTA Agreement. The Minister noted that an analysis of market in Bosnia-Herzegovina showed that the amount and range of goods imported from Serbia have increased in recent years, but that is still little in relation to possibilities and demand.
