Current Bosnian politicians out of their depth, says US diplomat

SARAJEVO, Dec 19 (Hina) - The political leaders in power in Bosnia and Herzegovina are not up to the task of integrating the country into the European Union and NATO, so the international community will have to think about what to do to remove the current political blockades, the US Embassy charge d'affaires in Sarajevo, Nicholas Hill, has said.

Bosnia needs brave and visionary steps to move on, he was quoted as saying in Thursday's Nezavisne Novine daily.

We are eagerly waiting for leaders to appear who will take that decisive visionary step. Unfortunately, the current political leaders are not of that calibre and this is disappointing, Hill said.

He said the United States and the EU also had the responsibility and the need to work on improving the situation in Bosnia, including its Constitution written in Dayton.

There is a certain disappointment in Washington. We counted on the EU being sufficient motivation to get the leaders in Bosnia started, Hill said, adding that the US was considering the possibility of being more active in Bosnia after the period in which it had left the initiative up to the EU, which had been ineffective.

Hill said Washington was constantly evaluating the situation and that now was the right moment to analyse the effects of the approach so far.
