Minister of Foreign Affairs of the Republic of Serbia Nikola Selakovic sent a message of condolences to Minister of Foreign Affairs of Bosnia and Herzegovina Bisera Turkovic following the tragic event which took place in Posusje.

"There is no greater sadness and sorrow for citizens of a country than when a tragic event results in loss of young lives.

The demise of eight young men and women in Posusje filled with sadness the New Year holidays in Serbia as well, for every time we lose a young person we lose a part of our joint future as well.

May I ask you to convey the expressions of my deepest and most sincere condolences to the citizens of Bosnia and Herzegovina and to the families of the deceased", reads the telegram addressed by the Serbian Foreign Minister.
