His Excellency Ambassador Luigi Soreca, Head of the EU Delegation and EU Special Representative in Bosnia and Herzegovina visited the Constitutional Court of Bosnia and Herzegovina today.
Ambassador Soreca was welcomed by President of the Constitutional Court of Bosnia and Herzegovina Mirsad Ćeman and his associates.
As part of the continuous and very successful cooperation with the EU Delegation in Bosnia and Herzegovina, President Ćeman informed Ambassador Soreca of the current challenges in the work of the Constitutional Court of Bosnia and Herzegovina. He particularly referred to the very significant role of the Constitutional Court in protecting the constitutional and legal order in Bosnia and Herzegovina. He further pointed to a very large number of pending AP cases as a result of the fact that the Constitutional Court cannot operate as a Grand Chamber.
Ambassador Soreca pointed out that the EU Delegation in Bosnia and Herzegovina would continue to provide full support to the work of the Constitutional Court of Bosnia and Herzegovina in performing its role as interpreter and guardian of the Constitution of Bosnia and Herzegovina, and ensuring the rule of law in Bosnia and Herzegovina, notably, in the segment of protection of human rights and freedoms.
At the end, Ambassador Soreca thanked for the reception, exchange of opinions and information he received from President Ćeman during the visit and wished a successful work to the Constitutional Court of Bosnia and Herzegovina.
