Antunovic met in Sarajevo with the Education and Health Ministers

discuss concrete forms of assistance to be covered with funds that
Croatia earmarked in this year's budget for support to Croats in
Bosnia-Herzegovina.
Antunovic told reporters that the Croatian government had
earmarked 25 million kuna (around US$2.99 million) and that the
money would be used for various projects intended to advance
science, education, culture and health systems in Bosnia.
Minister Demirovic thanked the Croatian government for its
interest in supporting Bosnia-Herzegovina and its readiness to
finance projects that would be in the interest not only of Croats
but of other peoples living in Bosnia.
