During the visit, the President of the Republic of Srpska attended a local dinner with representatives of our diaspora in Phoenix, where 20,000 of Serbs live.

On this occasion, the President Cvijanović stressed that every person in the diaspora is important for the Republic of Srpska, and that this visit shows that there is no such distance that can prevent us from gathering and being together.
