The Impact of the Coronavirus in Bosnia and Herzegovina



As the coronavirus continues to make its presence felt around the globe, there are now seven confirmed cases in Bosnia and Herzegovina. And as a result of the wrath it has reigned, particularly in Italy and other neighboring countries in Europe, the country has barred entry to travelers from those countries most affected by the coronavirus outbreak and banned public gatherings of more than 300 people indefinitely.  As a result travel has been limited at best for Mirsad Hadzikadic and the Platform for Progress as they continue organizing around the country in preparation for the local elections in October of 2020.  When Mirsad and I recently spoke he said planned trips to Austria had to be cancelled in addition to several appearances in Bosnia and Herzegovina.  But despite these setbacks he says he was able to present a major Platform proposal in the city of Mostar that could restore local elections there for the first time in twelve years.

Učinak korona virusa u Bosni i Hercegovini

Dok je korona virus i dalje prisutan širom svijeta, u Bosni i Hercegovini sada ima sedam potvrđenih slučajeva. Kao rezultat gnjeva koji je zavladao, posebno u Italiji i ostalim susjednim zemljama u Europi, zemlja je zabranila ulazak putnicima iz onih zemalja koje su najviše pogođene korona virusom i zabranila javna okupljanja više od 300 ljudi na neodređeno vrijeme. Kao rezultat toga, putovanja su ograničena za Mirsada Hadžikadića i Platformu za progres, jer se oni i dalje organizuju širom zemlje u okviru priprema za lokalne izbore koji će se održati u oktobru 2020. godine. Kad smo Mirsad i ja nedavno razgovarali, on je rekao da planirana putovanja u Austriju moraju biti otkazana, kao i nekoliko nastupa u Bosni i Hercegovini. Uprkos tim smetnjama, kaže da je uspio predstaviti značajan Platformin prijedlog u gradu Mostaru, koji bi tamo mogao ponovo uspostaviti lokalne izbore po prvi put nakon  dvanaest godina.
