Most importantly, the President of the Republic emphasized that Srpska had been supplying the district with electricity for years and, on that basis, had indirectly invested 56 million BAM, which were significant funds and which aided the citizens of the district.

Apart from the infrastructure projects and schools, it was added by the President Cvijanović, the Government of Srpska, along with the Government of Serbia, also built a kindergarten in the district.

The President of the Republic highlighted that the district has not been an isolated category, nor was isolated from the framework of BiH or the region.

“It is important for the Brčko District to have a good cooperation with all levels of government in order to function more successfully. This is a space that requires certain attentiveness and consideration, and I am happy to see that the district institutions are doing their job well, but also that we, who are attached to Brčko, are helping in a certain way”, said the President Cvijanović.
