CHIEF OF STAFF (COS) EUFOR held a meeting with Chief PSC BIJELJINA on 12 Jun 13 and agreed to increase the engagement levels between EUFOR and BiH Law Enforcement Agencies (LEAs). COS EUFOR, Brigadier General József SZPISJÁK paid a visit to the Public Security Centre (PSC) in BIJELJINA where he met with Mr. Vasilije ANDRIC. As Chief of the PSC BJILJINA, Mr. ANDRIC is responsible for all security arrangements during the upcoming commemorations in SREBRENICA and BRATIUNAC.

COS EUFOR re-emphasized his commitment and support to the authorities of Bosnia and Herzegovina (BiH) in their efforts in providing a safe and secure environment in BiH, and articulated his appreciation for the professional manner in which LEAs had conducted their duties in previous years. The Chief of PSC BIJELJINA and COS EUFOR agreed to share appropriate information and to increase liaison at all levels in order to be prepared should any situation arise which requires EUFOR’s support.

The responsibility for maintaining the safe and secure environment lies primarily with the BiH LEAs with EUFOR available to supply support if required. BiH authorities have proven to be exceptionally capable in dealing with all issues relating to the commemorations in the past and have not required the assistance of EUFOR. The extensive exchange of information for these annual commemorations is proof of the continued effort all participants are making to work together and meet common stability goals.

Recently a Memorandum of Understanding between EUFOR and all BiH Law Enforcement Agencies was signed, which formalized the rules under which EUFOR and BiH Law Enforcement Agencies exchange information in relation for their common work. This meeting demonstrates further evidence of the excellent working relationships which EUFOR enjoys with the BiH Law Enforcement Agencies and with whom it co-operates in the common interest of maintaining a safe and secure environment in BiH.
