MOSTAR, Dec 29 (Hina) - The Office of the High Representative (OHR) to
Bosnia-Herzegovina and the European Commission's Delegation called on
Bosnian authorities to ensure the continuation of production in the
aluminium plant in Mostar, southern Bosnia-Herzegovina, on Monday, two
days before the announced discontinuation of supplying the factory
with electricity.#L#
Foreign diplomats sent the message a day before a session of the
Croat-Muslim Federation's government, set for Tuesday.
According to a press release issued by the OHR on Monday, it is
necessary to find solutions which will make it possible for the
'Aluminij' company to operate as this is important for the country's
economy, and the OHR calls on all parties to reach a fair agreement on
power supplies which will be based on sound economic foundations.
Last month, the state-run Elektroprivreda BiH company terminated a
long-term contract with the German Debis company which bought via
agents the power supplies for the Mostar plant.
The European Commission's Delegation reported that successful
continuation in providing 'Aluminij' with electricity played an
important role in improving the business climate in Bosnia and could
encourage foreign business people to invest in the country.
