Bosnian Minister of the Interior turned back at Croatian border

(ANSA) - SARAJEVO, 20 LUG - The Minister of the Interior of the Croat-Muslim Federation, one of the two entities that make up Bosnia and Herzegovina (the other being the Republika Srpska), was turned back at the border with Croatia because he did not have the proper documents to enter the neighboring country, which is part of the European Union. According to reports, Minister Ramo Isak, to avoid the long queues that occur at this time of year at the more frequently used border crossings, tried to use a border post intended for local cross-border traffic, used exclusively by the local population of Bosnia and Herzegovina and Croatia. The minister was aware of this but attempted it anyway. The Bosnian border police let him pass, but the Croatian counterparts turned him back. His diplomatic passport did not help either. By law, ministers of the Croat-Muslim Federation government are entitled to a diplomatic passport. (ANSA).
