Chairman of the Bosnia-Herzegovina Presidency Bakir Izetbegovic said Bosnia should become an EU member country in eight to ten years. According to this politician, the prediction represents "a realistic time-frame". Presidency chair: Bosnia to join EU in 8 to 10 years "It is realistic if we act responsibly, if we do not keep making delays of several years which have put us last in the regional race of countries aspiring to join the EU," Izetbegovic told the Bosnia edition of the Croatian daily Vecernji List. Talking about the upcoming NATO Summit in Chicago, he stressed a referendum on Bosnia's accession to the western military alliance can only be organized at the state level. Izetbegovic also noted that the time of the Ottoman Empire "is long past" and "modern Turkey's engagement in Bosnia is "for now well-meaning and produces good results". Izetbegovic represents Bosniaks (Muslims) in the country's three-member presidency. Post war Bosnia-Herzegovina is made up of two entities: the Serb Republic (RS), and the Muslim-Croat Federation (FBiH). Bakir Izetbegovic (Tanjug, file) Tanjug

Bure baruta pred eksplozijom: Počinje veliki rat?

Bliski istok, zbog promene ravnoteže snaga i dubokih kriza, pre svega palestinsko-izraelske, može se smatrati buretom baruta i ima potencijal da dovede ne samo do regionalnog sukoba, već i do globalnog konflikta.
